In my view, these steps aren't sufficient, for the reasons described in

http://marc.info/?l=linux-omap&m=135964568904053&w=2

Even with CONFIG_CPU_IDLE=n, it's still possible to attempt to enter
full-chip retention idle on OMAP4 via 'echo mem > /sys/power/state', so it
doesn't seem right to restrict a solution to that case.


I think rajendra also mentioned adding one in suspend path too
when it fails.
" Also throw one when a suspend fails, saying bootloader
*could be* a possible cause specifying the right version to be used."

I find Rajendra's suggestion reasonable because some one might
just miss the boot message but getting the message on failure
case cant' be missed.
