Sure, apart from the dependencies I create for myself in other modules that I
introduce I see:

ERROR: "omap_pm_clkdms_setup" [arch/arm/mach-omap2/pm33xx.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "clkdm_for_each" [arch/arm/mach-omap2/pm33xx.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "clkdm_lookup" [arch/arm/mach-omap2/pm33xx.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "pwrdm_lookup" [arch/arm/mach-omap2/pm33xx.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "pwrdm_post_transition" [arch/arm/mach-omap2/pm33xx.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "clkdm_sleep" [arch/arm/mach-omap2/pm33xx.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "clkdm_wakeup" [arch/arm/mach-omap2/pm33xx.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "pwrdm_read_pwrst" [arch/arm/mach-omap2/pm33xx.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "cpu_suspend" [arch/arm/mach-omap2/pm33xx.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "omap_set_pwrdm_state" [arch/arm/mach-omap2/pm33xx.ko] undefined!

So the mach-omap2 clockdomain and power domain functions along with arch arm
cpu_suspend code. I see similar dependencies in the other mach-omap2/pmxxxx.c
code also.

Alright, thanks for your input.

Getting there!
