It works on omap4 and omap5. It won't work on any
am33xx devices.

Yes, this is needed only for am33xx because am33xx hwmod rightly
had the hwmod flags for NO_IDLE and NO_RESET removed and omap4
and omap5 wrongly still carry them around.

Just try applying PATCH 2/2 of this series and it won't work on the
omap4 sdp anymore.
