I have several problems with this patch.

First, the changelog is missing a lot of information.  In particular, nowhere
is it described what problem is this patch addressing  and how this
patch addresses that problem.

Second, I don't see any mention of off-mode, and I suspect there are
issues with off-mode here that are not being addressed.

Also, I *really* don't like any approach that is targetted at a single
SoC.
