For OMAP2:

Tested-by: Kevin Hilman <khilman at ti.com>

to test a little more on OMAP2, I just removed the WFI from the
low-level code and tested suspend that way.  That's enough to be sure
the copied code is copied and executed.

Worked fine on OMAP2420/n810.

For OMAP1, this didn't work and would require more serious hacking on
the OMAP1 suspend path, which I currently have no plans to do.
