Yes, cpu-idle is enabled.

I think corruption is mostly early, though it isn't very consistent.

e.g.

# C!jHhzys/Y?omap/omap_uart.2/power/autosuspend_delay_ms
-bash: !jHhzys/Y?omap/omap_uart.2/power/autosuspend_delay_ms: event not found
# echo 0 > /sys/devices/platFK/////mpWWt.]au%e_mHHHhQ 5
-bash: /sys/devices/platFK/////mpWWt.]au%e_mHHHhQ: No such file or directory
