I had a short chat with Govind on this and was trying to understand
this better.
Are you referring to the 'autodeps' for omap3 here, because they would
prevent any clock domain from idling as long as MPU or IVA are active,
but not the other way round. Which means MPU can still idle, while CORE
does not.

My guess was, its probably the CORE domain idling itself thats causing
the UART sluggishness, (and not MPU idling), due to higher latency,
which is prevented with an active UART module in CORE, but not in PER.
So Govind did a small experiment to prevent just CORE idling and let MPU
idle alone and that did not show any sluggishness.

Now, putting a pm-qos constraint for a UART in CORE still looks
redundant because the latency requirement that UART has is in
some way *indirectly* met (because the active UART in CORE prevents
CORE transitions in idle).
But don't you think the UART driver should express its
latency constraints regardless, without thinking of any indirect ways
in which the same requirements would have already been met?

regards,
Rajendra
