I have updated patches [1-3] after receiving some feedback and the result
follows.  These patches are regarded as 3.2 material, if no one has
objections.

[1/3] - Split device PM domain data into a "base" and additional fields
        (one need_restore field at the moment).
 
[2/3] - Make runtime PM always release power.lock if power.irq_safe is set.
 
[3/3] - Add function for reading device PM QoS values safely.

Thanks,
Rafael
