Okay. From the msm-3.14 commit log:

Add support to terminate all low power modes in PSCI. The lpm-levels will
work with version 1.0 of PSCI specification using the OS initiated scheme.
The lpm-levels driver would determine the last man standing and vote into
TZ accordingly.

Which means that the vendor kernel expected to work in the OSI mode
without calling SET_SUSPEND (such call doesn't exist in 3.14)

So, this looks like the "force-psci-domains" or "ignore-osi-error"
flag would be logical.
The question about testing still holds.
