Unfortunately, the spec is correct in this context.

That would be me... :)
I have started looking at it and will soon submit the patches for this.

Side note,

I am not sure whether we access these bits explicitly. If I understand correctly, API's which access these bits are not being called from anywhere, 
For example,

	omap4_pwrdm_read_mem_retst
	omap4_pwrdm_set_mem_retst
	omap4_pwrdm_set_mem_onst

Currently the major issue would be, for PM_PER_PWRSTCTRL, where 
LogicRETState bit has been moved to offset 3. This is being used in 
omap4_pwrdm_set_logic_retst() api.

And in order to support weird/non-standard bit-offsets, we have to clean omap2_pwrdm_get_mem_bank_onstate/retst/_mask() api and have bitshift field in struct powerdomain, as you have rightly pointed out.

Is my all understanding correct?

If yes, do you think this patch should get blocked for above cleanup? I feel
Cleanup can still follow, since this won't impact the AM33xx boot.

What's your opinion on this??

Yes, certainly.
