why maybe unused?

This is not limited to suspend, you will need to notify RPM during 
deepest cpu idle state entry as well, since MPM may be monitoring 
interrupts in that case too.

This may be handled for both suspend/CPUidle using cpu pm notifications 
where in last cpu entering deepest idle may notify RPM (something 
similar to what rpmh-rsc.c does)

Thanks,
Maulik
