Same comments here as on "arm: omap3: am35x: Set proper powerdomain 
states" -- does it even make sense for us to separate out INACTIVE at all 
in this case?  Seems like AM3517/3505 supports powerdomains ON, and that's 
it.  Seems like we can't program INACTIVE to the POWERSTATE bits, nor can 
we read it from those bits?
