Hi Krzysztof,

Please see my comment below.

This code is executed only if the CPU doesn't manage to power off before
already receiving a wake-up event. Otherwise the context is lost after
wfi(), as the core power is being cut down.

The normal wake-up path goes through platsmp's exynos_boot_secondary()
and I believe that setting of S5P_USE_DELAYED_RESET_ASSERTION should be
taken care there as well.

Best regards,
Tomasz
