On Exynos-based boards running secure firmware the sequence of low level
operations to enter and leave system-wide sleep mode is different than
on those without the firmware. Namely:
- CP15 power control and diagnostic registers cannot be written directly,
- the way of setting boot address and boot flag is different,
- different resume handler needs to be used (generic cpu_resume() vs
exynos_cpu_resume()),
- dedicated SMC call needs to be performed instead of letting the CPU enter
WFI.
This series introduces .suspend() and .resume() firmware operations to
perform low level firmware-specific suspend and resume and then leverages
them to provide suspend-resume path meeting the above requirements.
The series is based on Kgene's for-next branch and tested on
Exynos4412-based Trats2 board (with few board-specific fixes that will be
sent separately) and Exynos4210-based Trats board (without any extra
patches).
