I'm concerned that this will effectively mean that no driver maintainers 
will bother to measure these latencies.   These are necessary for 
a reasonable implementation of omap_pm_set_max_dev_wakeup_lat().
They should not be difficult to measure: boot at the lowest-performance 
OPPs with the latencies uninitialized; then these warnings should indicate 
numbers that can be plugged back into the omap_device structure.  But 
perhaps I am misunderstanding the point you are making?
