Right. I apparently missed this, since this error should never happen 
unless there is something wrong with your hardware (SoC or PMIC).

Still, the generic code in drivers/base/power/domain.c does not add the 
"domain" prefix to the message. Without this patch it was printing 
messages like

I: Power-on latency exceeded, new value 1000 ns

I'd say that what's need adjustment are the messages in 
mach-s3c64xx/pm.c to print "%s: Failed to start\n" and keep things 
consistent with higher level code.

They are listed like this in user's manual, e.g. DOMAIN_F, DOMAIN_I, 
DOMAIN_G, etc.

Best regards,
Tomasz
