Hi Anson,

sorry for the late review, I've been pretty busy.

If Shawn is ok, I can pick the patches 1-4 in my tree and then this one
after you fix the comments below.

Is that a retention state or a powerdown? It is preferable to change the

It is pointless to specify the entry + exit *and* the wakeup-latency [2].
