I left a r-b on most patches, but I have some comments that you may
take into account (and still retain them)

This seems mildly useful.. I know that PC stands for Power Collapse,
but for most other people that's Program Counter or Personal Computer..

And the llcc-off (or l2-xxx) states should be more descriptive to say
what other implications entering this state has (the name does not
make that obvious in isolation)
