Adds support for configuring the omap-gpio driver use autosuspend for runtime power management. This can reduce the latency in using it by not suspending the device immediately on idle. If another access takes place before the autosuspend timeout (2 secs), the call to resume the device can return immediately saving some save/ restore cycles. This removes also the bank->mod_usage counter, because this is already handled in pm_runtime. I use a gpio to monitor a spi transfer which occurs every 250µs. The suspend overhead is to high, so almost every second transfer is lost. This patch fixes that.

From patch it appears your main motive is to delay the idle kicking in with a timeout to avoid GPIO on cpuidle path. Some comments

Waiting for 2 seconds timeout even on GPIO free seems to be wrong.

This is what is the main change from this patch which helps your case.

Can you please report how have you tested this change ? What other PM tests you have done? Removing mod usage might just break this driver because now individual banks which can idle before, can no longer idle. Just to expand a bit, Out of 6 GPIO banks, GPIO1 bank is in always ON domain where as remaing 5 are in peripheral domain. Letting individual banks idle allowed you let the clock domain idle than keeping all the 6 banks and hence respective clock/power domain in ON state. So the adding timeout might be reasonable but I am not sure about the mod_usage change here.
