Just for easier understanding, let me give an example:

    funnel0: funnel at 10000000 {
        compatible = "arm,coresight-dynamic-funnel", "arm,primecell";
        reg = <0x10000000 0x1000>;

        clocks = <&rpmcc RPM_SMD_QDSS_CLK>, <&rpmcc RPM_SMD_QDSS_A_CLK>;
        clock-names = "apb_pclk", "atclk";
        power-domains = <&cluster0_pd>;
    }

If funnel0 is bound to cluster's power domain, kernel's genPD will
automatically enable cluster power domain before access registers.

My understanding is your driver or firmware fails to turn on a cluster
power domain without waking up a CPU (and without sending IPI).  It is
not a kernel issue or limitation, and no any incorrect in PSCI OSI.

As Suzuki said, you might directly reply Sudeep's questions.  We would
confirm if any flaw in common code.

Indeed.  If you insmod mode, you might can temporarily disable idle
states?

    exec 3<> /dev/cpu_dma_latency; echo 0 >&3
    insmod
    exec 3<>-
