IMO "no increased power consumption" is a bit misleading because
boot-time power consumption may have a major increase when all power
domains are powered on.  Sure, they will eventually (hopefully) be
turned off in after late_initcall, but there will still be an impact.

I guess the Samsung folks should comment here on whether that is
significant.
