Paul, thank you for the clear explanation.

I've talked to some hardware guys and I have come to the following
conclusions:

a) What you say above about CM_IDLEST is correct.
b) There seems to be no good way, in general, to tell if the SHA
   (or AES or RNG or ...) module exists.
c) The best thing to do is what you suggest and add the SHA hwmod
   data for all omap2's and omap3 GP's.

I will respin my patches with everyone's comments addressed later today.

Thanks everyone.

Mark
