Yes considering the breakage it's pretty obvious the original series was
never properly tested on omaps.
Regarding this fix, using gpio/next + this patch fixes nfsroot for 2430sdp,
and gets zoom3 nfsroot booting going a bit better.
However, at least on zoom3 nfsroot now takes several _minutes_ to get to
login: with gpio/next + this patch. The system is totally unusable.
It seems that the GPIO interrupt wake-up events are not properly working
now?
Reverting the "gpio/omap: fix missing check in *_runtime_suspend()"
patch seems to fix the issue.

Kevin, looks like commit 1b12870 does not exist in gpio/next?
