Enable the 'dynamic clock stop' and 'standby mode' features in the
l2x0 disable path.

Hi,

we are currently implementing a suspend to RAM like low power mode for
Zynq.
The code for entering suspend looks like this:
outer_disable();
cpu_suspend(0, zynq_pm_suspend);
outer_resume();

In our low power guidelines we mention the pl310's standby and clock stop
feature and that they should be enabled for low power modes. The question
arising here now is: Does the outer_disable() make these features redundant,
or does it make sense to add it like shown in this patch?

Thanks,
SÃren
