Ok. Will send it out separately.

Yes, this is very much doable. Some comments below.

Yes, this can be done. We just need to extend this condition to
(flags[i] & OPAL_PM_TIMEBASE_STOP || flags[i] &
OPAL_PM_SLEEP_ENABLED).
Even though all the recent versions of OPAL have OPAL_PM_TIMEBASE_STOP
set for states which have OPAL_PM_SLEEP_ENABLED, I am not sure if
that was always the case and which is why we have the fastsleep case
explicitly coded in the kernel.
