Applying the patch above, and registering the soc_ops for omap4 instead 
of am33xx doesn't seem to help. The context lost count now always returns 0.

And to verify Tomi's observation, if we don't rely on the context lost 
count, and restore the registers always, we don't see the problem.

Btw, we use the function omap_pm_get_dev_context_loss_count to get the 
count, do we use this or is there a new func to get the count?

Thanks,
