In the interests of keeping the mailing list record up to date, with
the following:

850d434ea37b ("gpio: omap: Remove set but not used variable 'dev'")
c4791bc6e3a6 ("gpio: omap: drop omap_gpio_list")
467480738d0b ("gpio: omap: get rid of the conditional PM runtime calls")
5284521a290e ("gpio: omap: Get rid of pm_runtime_irq_safe()")
b764a5863fd8 ("gpio: omap: Remove custom PM calls and use cpu_pm instead")

reverted, the problem is still there.  Revert:

ec0daae685b2 ("gpio: omap: Add level wakeup handling for omap4 based SoCs")

on top, and networking returns to normal.  So it appears to be this
last commit causing the issue.

With that and b764a5863fd8 applied, it still misbehaves.  Then, poking
at the OMAP4_GPIO_IRQWAKEN0 register, changing it from 0 to 4 with
devmem2 restores normal behaviour - ping times are normal and NFS is
happy.

# devmem2 0x48055044 w 4

(slightly more complex for me as its via NFS and needs different C
libraries from the ones on the rootfs.)

Given that this GPIO device is not runtime suspended, and is
permanently active (which is what I think we expect, given that it
has an IRQ claimed against it) does the hardware still attempt to
idle the GPIO block - if so, could that be why we need to program
the wakeup register, so the GPIO block signals that it's active?
