Perhaps OFF mode notifier might help best here. In addition - it might
be safer to protect all calls with clkdm_wakeup around
secure_dispatcher instead of just the save_secure_all.. ROM code is
not smart enough around it.
an completely safe version used by security driver can be found here:
http://git.omapzoom.org/?p=kernel/omap.git;a=blob;f=security/smc/tf_comm_mshield.c;h=b5279fef0fa400438a57b3941af13d965e983bf0;hb=p-android-omap-3.0#l253
this is what the production kernels have used in the past.
