Thanks, makes sense, please add something like the following to
explaining why/when DC3co is useful:

The smaller overhead of DC3co entry/exit vs. the overhead of PSR2 deep
sleep entry/exit allows the HW to enter a low-power state even when page
flipping periodically (for instance a 30fps video playback scenario).
