ARM: at91: pm: cpu_idle: switch DDR to power-down mode
commit 60b89f19 upstream. On some DDR controllers, compatible with the sama5d3 one, the sequence to enter/exit/re-enter the self-refresh mode adds more constrains than what is currently written in the at91_idle driver. An actual access to the DDR chip is needed between exit and re-enter of this mode which is somehow difficult to implement. This sequence can completely hang the SoC. It is particularly experienced on parts which embed a L2 cache if the code run between IDLE calls fits in it... Moreover, as the intention is to enter and exit pretty rapidly from IDLE, the power-down mode is a good candidate. So now we use power-down instead of self-refresh. As we can simplify the code for sama5d3 compatible DDR controllers, we instantiate a new sama5d3_ddr_standby() function.
