This is correct. So this is what I have now for the non-dma case:

and now I need to come up with something that is not if (port != omap)
for that #if 0 block. The code disables the TX FIFO empty interrupt once
the transfer is complete. I want to call __stop_tx() once the tx fifo is
empty.
Felipe, Would a check for dev->power.use_autosuspend be the right thing
to do?
