It should be possible to do this by providing custom activate/deactivate
functions similar to what was done for EMAC on AM35x [1].
However, right now on DT based systems omap_device_alloc() is called without
any pm_lats
od = omap_device_alloc(pdev, hwmods, oh_cnt, NULL, 0);
The function pointers from the of_dev_auxdata somehow needs to be passed to
omap_device_alloc().
