It seems there is a misunderstanding somewhere. Runtime PM allows the Linux kernel to disable temporary unused devices at runtime. E.g. if the NSS is switched off, the kernel can switch NSSCC off too, cutting the power. It has nothing to do with the frequency of the device / clock or with the product being a router or a mobile device. -- With best wishes Dmitry
