Interesting approach. With ARM getting more and more potent, why not? :)

I see. JFYI, there is a flaw in the suspend handling in the out-of-tree
CMM patch [*], which renders the SoC unresponsive on HDMI hotplug. The
fix is currently under review. Hopefully it will make its way to [*]
in the nearest future. Just to keep in mind for the moment when CMM
s2ram will become a mainline feature.
