I've thought that we can only hit this with the as-yet unmerged rc6
patches on bdw, so I'm really confused why this blows up now?

In any case I've thought Imre has stumbled over a similar issue on byt and
he has a fix to prevent runtime pm until the delayed rps init has run.
I've assigned the bug to him.

Still confused why this suddenly blew up ...
