Hmm that's same as PWRDM_POWER_RET? That's working too.
Or do you have something else in mind that I'm not aware
of?

OK, sounds like you already have a patch for that in your
3.14-rc4-cm-prm-driver-wip branch?

Let's do the fixes first, then it's going to be a lot easier for
us to test the rest of the PRMC changes.

Using I2C4 works too, we're just missing a place to set
and clear OMAP3430_PRM_VOLTCTRL_SEL_OFF bit currently. Sounds
like eventually we should allow changing it dynamically somewhere.

But for now, SEL_OFF should be enabled as it allows debugging PM
by looking at the sys_clkreq and sys_off_mode pins no matter if
there are board specific scripts or not. The sys_off_mode won't
toggle if things are configured to use I2C4, which is confusing.
