Thanks for getting this going.

I noticed system timers are not working properly now though. Not
sure what might cause that, but I spotted few issues below.

We must not use pm_runtime functions here, these notifiers run
at a point when runtime PM is out of the picture already. And
we really don't want to tag any modules with pm_runtime_irq_safe()
as it takes a permanent use count on the parent device.

Instead, just add atomic_t awake that runtime_resume sets at the end,
and runtime_suspend clears first thing. Then you can check for awake
here, and there's nothing to do here if !awake.

And then runtime_suspend should save the context too and
runtime_resume restore it :)

For the OMAP_TIMER_ALWON checks, I believe am335x and am437x have
OMAP_TIMER_ALWON set for timers but will still have context lost
in deeper idle states as only the PMIC is enabled.

For those cases, at least runtime_suspend and resume functions
need to save and restore context based on setting some flag
maybe based on of_machine_is_compatible() or soc_device_match().

I guess with recent cpuidle patches, this needs to be also done
during runtime for am335x and am437x. Maybe Dave or Keerthy have
more comments on that part?

Tony
