Hi

just a quick comment on this one.

>From the patch description, it doesn't sound like it's WFI entry that's 
the problem.  The EMAC can assert its interrupt lines to the INTC, since 
the EMAC is active.  If the MPU and CORE powerdomains are ON, then the ARM 
core should wake up out of WFI.  (Unless there's some weird bug; always 
possible.)

Probably the MPU DPLL has to stay running for it all to work, since I 
think that is activated and deactivated by the PRCM.  Maybe the CORE DPLL 
has to stay running too (but I doubt it).  But I'll bet that all the 
clocks downstream of the DPLLs can be gated.  If it works, that would save 
a lot of energy over the disable_hlt() approach.  With disable_hlt(), the 
ARM & interconnect is just going to be burning power waiting for the 
interrupt to come in.

Want to try something like this?  It's your patch but modified to not use 
disable/enable_hlt().  If it doesn't work in your test case, maybe 
try uncommenting that second set of deny_idle / allow_idle ...
