I looked at it and it seems limited to pmdomain/core.c, also I don't
know if there is a ->set_performance_state callback set since the one I
checked have mutex_t locking ;)
So if this is needed, then be it. s2ram wouldn't be used in "production"
but in "safe state" so I wouldn't worry too much about latency spikes.
Not sure what it means for the other modes.
I am not to worried for now, please don't let spread more than needed ;)
