PM QoS device start/stop and save/restore state latencies are more or
less properties of the hardware.
In legacy code, they're specified from platform code.
On DT platforms, their values should come from DT.

Should these properties be called "linux,*-latency"?

v3:
  - No changes
v2:
  - New

I am not so sure about this.

First, I think there a too much software affecting these latencies to
call them hardware properties.

Second, I am not sure that the future version of genpd will have all
these four latencies, but maybe only two. Let's see. I would thus
suggest to put this patch on hold for a while.

Kind regards
Uffe
