- Rather than hooking into omap4_enter_lowpower(), should use
?the cluster PM enter/exit notifier chain.
This is again specific to device OFF only and not related to CPU
cluster state as such. So I don't think notifiers should be used here.

O.w even when we attempt just MPU OSWR C-state, all these functions will
get called in notifier chain.
Just a thought, we can have a separate notifier chain for device OFF. It can
allow use to get rid of 'enable_off_mode" kind of flags and can be
used by many drivers too.
Like the overall idea, but one minor dumb concern might be sequencing
of notifiers
 - OFF entry and restore needs things to be executed in a specific sequence.
How do we plan to ensure the sequence is maintained in a notifier call
chain? one
possible option might be a "priority" based scheme?
