Right. The only documentation of the SSI module is existing
code sent by Carlos / included in the maemo kernel.

I can confirm, that the N900 hits idle states when the DT
patch and the hwmod patch is applied. I have not actually
tested if it also works without your hwmod patch.

There are still problems with the idle state if the driver is
actually loaded (and I see 100% runtime pm usage in powertop),
but that can be fixed later.

Feel free to add Tested-by/Acked-By to the hwmod patch.
