Subject[PATCH 4.0 073/105] ARM: dts: am335x-boneblack: disable RTC-only sleep to avoid hardware damage
Date
4.0-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Matthijs van Duin <matthijsvanduin@gmail.com>

commit 7a6cb0abe1aa63334f3ded6d2b6c8eca80e72302 upstream.

Avoid entering "RTC-only mode" at poweroff. It is unsupported by most
versions of BeagleBone, and risks hardware damage.

The damaging configuration is having system-power-controller
without ti,pmic-shutdown-controller.
