I agree, it makes sense.  It reminds me that this driver could use some
comments, since each time I come back to it I forget why some of this
stuff is there.

Most certainly agree.

Yes, it fixes the off-mode dynamic idle problem on my 37xx EVM.

Let's just drop mine and you can take this forward.

Since this is a fix needed for v3.7-rc, you should add a bit more here
describing what was broken (bogus context restore, etc.)  Basically
answering "why" to your the "we need to ensure that..." statement.

(though not that that matters now that I've shown a high-level of
 incompetence with this patch)  ;)

When reposting for Linus W., you might make this 'v4' so that it's clear
that it superceeds the other bungling attempts at the same fix.

Thanks for following this through,

Kevin
