I am not sure I know where to start on fixing that issue.  Would you
entertain enabling the driver if we set the device tree to 'disabled'
by default?  This way if people want to to use it, it can be enabled
on a per-device option.  Once the power stuff gets resolved, we might
be able to enable it by default.  For people who are planning on using
the DM3730 @ 1GHz in high temp environments, I am not sure they'll
care about low power.

I'll try to look into it when I have time, but I was hoping a
compromise might be a reasonable work-around.
