SH7372 uses two independent mechanisms for ensuring that power
domains will never be turned off: the stay_on flag and the "always
on" domain governor. Moreover, the "always on" governor is only taken
into accout by runtime PM code paths, while the stay_on flag affects
all attempts to turn the given domain off. Thus setting the stay_on
flag causes the "always on" governor to be unnecessary, which is
quite confusing.
However, the stay_on flag is currently only set for two domains: A3SP
and A4S. Moreover, it only is set for the A3SP domain if
console_suspend_enabled is set, so stay_on won't be necessary for
that domain any more if console_suspend_enabled is checked directly
in its .suspend() routine. [This requires domain .suspend() to
return a result, but that is a minor modification.] Analogously,
stay_on won't be necessary for the A4S domain if it's .suspend()
routine always returns an error code.
