Hi Chris,

During the development of runtime power management we faced some random issue around RC6 during the suspend. After some analyzing, we found by following the  flow of doing Forcewake Get before the RC6 Disable and forcewake Put after we enable the RC6 solved most of the issues. 
This patch adds the Forcewake get before disabling the RC6

My commit message was to generic I guess :) I will change the commit message. 
The flow is between the driver and punit. :)

Thanks
Deepak

What suspend are we talking about? When does the BIOS run, how is that serialised with the get/put of forcewake?
