This patch is missing a description, which would describe why this lock is 
needed and what it protects against.  Please add this.

So this mutex would protect against simultaneous calls to 
omap_set_pwrdm_state(), but shouldn't this protection be extended to 
anything that would change the powerdomain's state?  For example, couldn't 
other calls to pwrdm_set_next_pwrst() race against this function?

Please add a kerneldoc entry in the struct powerdomain documentation for 
this field.
