We concluded there may be a window where the idle wakeup code could get to pnv_wakeup_tb_loss() (which clobbers non-volatile GPRs), but the hardware may set SRR1[46:47] to 01b (no state loss) which would result in the wakeup code failing to restore non-volatile GPRs. I was not able to trigger this condition with trivial tests on real hardware or simulator, but the ISA (at least 2.07) seems to allow for it, and Gautham says that it can happen if there is an exception pending when the sleep/winkle instruction is executed.
