One of suggestion form the HW team was to Bring the wells up before we 
disable RC6 at run-time. We did see some issue when we enabled D0ix.

I think the is a good practice to make sure we bring-up the wells before 
we disable RC6. At least this avoids the cases where wells are not up 
before we can access the Next register after disable.
