I just gave this series a round of PM testing.  I tested retention
and off in idle & suspend, with and without CPUidle on 3430/n900,
3530/Overo, 3730/OveroSTORM, 3730/Beagle-xM and 4430/Panda (though only
MPU/CPU ret/off is supported for OMAP4 in mainline.)

All PM tests passed with flying colors.  Nice!
