[PATCHv3 8/9] ARM: OMAP2+: AM33XX: Basic suspend resume support

[Dave Gerlach]

Nishanth,
The issue here is that during a low-power transition the peripheral 
power domain loses context so the MSTANDBY config gets lost which is why 
the custom handling is needed on every cycle if there is no driver to 
handle it. I was unable to come up with a more generic way to handle 
this but I am certainly open for suggestions.

Regards,
Dave
