I finally got to this one, sorry for the huge delay.
Let me confirm that I understand the code flow correctly.

-> so this is going to invoke genpd_runtime_suspend() if the usage
counter of dev is 0.
That will cause cpu_power_down_ok() to be called (because this is
a CPU domain) and that will walk the domain cpumask and compute the
estimated idle duration as the minimum of tick_nohz_get_next_wakeup()
values over the CPUs in that cpumask. [Note that the weight of the
cpumask must be seriously limited for that to actually work, as this
happens in the idle path.] Next, it will return "true" if it can
find a domain state with residency within the estimated idle
duration. [Note that this sort of overlaps with the idle governor's
job.]
Next, __genpd_runtime_suspend() will be invoked to run the device-specific
callback if any [Note that this has to be suitable for the idle path if
present.] and genpd_stop_dev() runs (which, again, may invoke a callback)
and genpd_power_off() runs under the domain lock (which must be a spinlock
then).

And this is called on wakeup when the cpuidle driver's ->enter callback
is about to return and it reverses the suspend flow (except that the
governor doesn't need to be called now).
Have I got that right?
