I'm sure I'm missing some details here, but from reading (and tracing)
the code it looks like the cached votes are still being flushed albeit
via rpmh_rsc_cpu_pm_callback() as the individual CPUs go down.

There wasn't really any obvious motivation in the series adding support
for the cluster domain as to why the new mechanism is preferred (e.g. if
this is an actual fix or just an optimisation done to align with
downstream):

Either way, this appears to work as intended even if it does not in
itself have any significant effect on the X13s power consumption (in
idle or suspend).
