[RFC PATCH] cpufreq: cpufreq-cpu0: do not allow transitions with regulators suspended

[Nishanth Menon]

For platforms where regulators are used, regulator access tends to be
disabled as part of the suspend path. In SMP systems such as OMAP,
CPU1 is disabled as post suspend_noirq. This results in the following
tail end sequence of actions:
cpufreq_cpu_callback gets called with CPU_POST_DEAD
	__cpufreq_remove_dev_finish is invoked as a result
		__cpufreq_governor(policy, CPUFREQ_GOV_START) is
		triggered

At this point, with ondemand governor, if the cpu entered suspend path
at a lower OPP, this triggers a transition request. However, since
irqs are disabled, typically, regulator control using I2C operations
are not possible either, regulator operations will naturally fail
(even though clk_set_rate might succeed depending on the platform).

Unfortunately, cpufreq_driver->suspend|resume is too late as well, since
they are invoked as part of syscore_ops (after CPU1 is hotplugged out).

The proposal here is to use pm notifier suspend to disable any
requests to target, as we may very well expect this to fail at a later
suspend sequence.

based on: v3.12-rc6
Tested on v3.12-rc6 vendor forked tree which supports suspend
Platform: OMAP5uEVM

Sample of the stack with i2c failure: http://pastebin.com/m5KxnB7a
With i2c failure fixed: http://pastebin.com/8AfX4e7r

I am open to alternative proposals if any - one option might be to
introduce a similar behavior at cpufreq level as allowing cpufreq
transitions in suspend path is probably not necessary.

If folks think that respinning this patch such that there is no
dependency on regulator to set is_suspended, it is fine with me as
well.
