I started digging around this and datasheet describes the regulator
values in sleep mode. The MIF can be off if C2C is not used. It seems
that the memory refresh is provided by CKEM regulators (which you
wanted to turn off in first version of the patch). I am not happy that
I ask about such information and cannot get it. It is the job of
submitter to provide rationale.

Krzysztof
