On one of the custom board the power measured didn't show any major impact, with just one time disabling of INTC-AUTOIDL. However,
optimizing this WA looks good though. I did give it a try,
Disabling/enabling INTC autoidle around WFI on custom board, works well but didn't get chance to
measure the numbers.
