I'll update it with the following to preserve the Fernet style,
and to describe the transition:

During idle, if the PER powerdomain transitions into a lower state
and CORE does not, the IO pad wakeups are not being disabled in
the idle path after they are enabled. This can happen with the
lower C-states when using CPUidle for example.

Updated patch attached.

Please reply ASAP if this is not OK, I'd like to get a pull
request for these fixes sent to Linus over the weekend.

Regards,

Tony
