Hi Abel,

Running this workaround doesn't seem to work anymore on 5.4-rcX. Linux
doesn't boot, with ATF unchanged (includes your workaround changes). I
can try to add more details to this...

Have you tested this for 5.4? Could you update this workaround? Please
let me know if I missed any earlier update on this (having a cpu-sleep
idle state).

thanks!
