If cpu_cluster_pm_enter() fails, cpu_pm_exit() should be called. This will put the CPU in the correct state to resume from the failure.

I probably fixes something for you, but I don't see the connection with the other patches.Ths bug was noticed (by inspection) along with earlier versions of this series, when Derek was still adding new cpu_pm callbacks, and new failure modes within the existing callbacks. It's a proper fix to my knowledge, but I believe it no longer has any particular relevance to this series, since we're not really touching cpu_pm in this series any more.
I don't doubt that this is a proper fix, but it has a better chance of being noticed on its own, rather than buried together with a now unrelated series. I'd suggest that when you or Derek respin this series, you don't include this patch, but instead post it on its own for review. Thanks, M. -- Jazz is not dead, it just smell funny.
