What is the actual extent of "peripheral devices" in this definition?

Our typical interpretation of this state is that IP-blocks might be
non-functional during this time, but typically some state is retained.

Will the acceptance of this patch result in that we in the Qualcomm case
should start accepting/writing patches that implement save/restore of
state that is generally retained throughout the drivers - in the name of
"power might be removed"?

With the right interpretation of what this means for us, I think this
patch looks good - but as we've discussed, I'm a bit worried about how
to deal with the alternative interpretations.

Specifically, if we fully adopt "power might be removed", we should to
take actions which will prevent a typical Qualcomm system from waking up
from sleep again.
