I've thought our code has the relevant power domain checks sprinkled all
over the get_config/state functions already? If that's not the case I
prefer we fix that, similar to my suggestion in reply to Imre's patches of
moving the power domain checking into the callbacks.

Wrt -fixes: Since the default autosuspend delay will make it impossible to
hit this I think we can punt. Rules for late -rc and cc: stable is that it
needs to be a real-world problem with a real bug report.

And one more: To make pm_pc8 more useful, could we just set the
autosuspend delay to 0 while the test is running? Then restore it again
with an igt atexit handler. That should help with our coverage and hitting
this tiny little issues you've fixed in this series.
