Ok, that would explain the second work.

WARN_ON(active), yup. Seems reasonable to keep for the moment.
WARN_ON(hw_state) would be worth keeping for some time. Hmm, shouldn't
it be checking both PSR_CTL irrespective of intended mode. After
switching psr1 to psr2 we should check that psr1 is disabled as well,
and vice versa.
