Introduce system suspend resume calls that will allow the ti_sci
driver to support deep sleep low power mode when the user space issues a
suspend to mem.

Also, write a ti_sci_prepare_system_suspend call to be used in the driver
suspend handler to allow the system to identify the low power mode being
entered and if necessary, send TISCI_MSG_PREPARE_SLEEP with information
about the mode is being entered and the address for allocated memory for
storing the context during Deep Sleep.

We're using "pm_suspend_target_state" to map the kernel's target suspend
state to SysFW low power mode. Make sure this is available only when
CONFIG_SUSPEND is enabled.

After this the will the IOs be in isolation? Or does the firmware wait
until power down begins later?
 From what I understand,
IOs will be in isolation immediately
That is what I understand too, so then any device that may need to do some
external communication for its suspend will not function, this must be the
last driver _suspend() the system calls, how do you enforce that?
I will make use of .suspend_noirq callbacks in that case. Does that
sound better, or is there anything else I may not be aware of?
Using _noirq just moves the problem.  What if other drivers are also
using _noirq callbacks and run after the SCI driver?  You still cannot
guarantee ordering.

It seems to me that the IO isolation stuff is a system-wide operation,
and should probably be handled at the platform suspend_ops level
(e.g. suspend_ops->prepare_late()).   This would ensure that it runs
*after* all the driver hooks (even driver _noirq hooks.) and right
before the full suspend (or s2idle.)

Now, all that being said, I noticed that in v7, you didn't move this to
_noirq, but instead suggested that this be handled by TF-A.  I suppose
that's an option also, but my suggestion above should work also.
