Looks like this breaks off mode during idle for omap3, and that's
probably why it never got enabled. The difference in power
consumption during idle is about 7mW vs 32mW for the SoC as
measured from torpedo shunt for main_battery_som.

I think the right fix might be simply to add handling for
CPU_CLUSTER_PM_ENTER to the related thermal driver to disable
it during idle like we have for gpio-omap.c for example.

Regards,

Tony
