HWMOD_SWSUP_SIDLE flag will is not what will help UART completely.
Also considering UART also needs async wakeup enabled as it implements
another such hook and attaches that through function pointer.

So some more work is needed to get that sorted out at least from
sysc point of view. That way we can deal with io_ring stuff using
pin control APIs.

Some patches will follow in attempt to address it. Stay tuned !!

Santosh
