Subject: [PATCH 1/3] clk: qcom: gdsc: Fix the handling of PWRSTS_RET support

GDSCs cannot be transitioned into a Retention state in SW.
When either the RETAIN_MEM bit, or both the RETAIN_MEM and
RETAIN_PERIPH bits are set, and the GDSC is left ON, the HW
takes care of retaining the memory/logic for the domain when
the parent domain transitions to low power state.
The existing logic handling the PWRSTS_RET seems to set the
RETAIN_MEM/RETAIN_PERIPH bits but then explicitly turns the
GDSC OFF as part of _gdsc_disable(). Fix that by leaving the
GDSC in ON state.

There are a few existing users of PWRSTS_RET and I am not
sure if they would be impacted with this change

1. mdss_gdsc in mmcc-msm8974.c, I am expecting that the
gdsc is actually transitioning to OFF and might be left
ON as part of this change, atleast till we hit system wide
low power state.
If we really leak more power because of this
change, the right thing to do would be to update .pwrsts for
mdss_gdsc to PWRSTS_OFF_ON instead of PWRSTS_RET_ON
I dont have a msm8974 hardware, so if anyone who has can report
any issues I can take a look further on how to fix it.

2. gpu_gx_gdsc in gpucc-msm8998.c and
   gpu_gx_gdsc in gpucc-sdm660.c
Both of these seem to add support for 3 power state
OFF, RET and ON, however I dont see any logic in gdsc
driver to handle 3 different power states.
So I am expecting that these are infact just transitioning
between ON and OFF and RET state is never really used.
The ideal fix for them would be to just update their resp.
.pwrsts to PWRSTS_OFF_ON only.
