I have and ES3.0 SDP.

Ah, great.  That is really good to know.  Are you using 
omap_3430sdp_pm_defconfig?

I see the same problems with and without your patches.

I'm using a ramdisk.

It happens on the first try.

Could you try my uImage which has my initramfs rootfs built-in on your
ES3.1 SDP?

   http://userweb.kernel.org/~khilman/tmp/rajendra/uImage.pm-vanilla

Immediately after booting, I do

# echo 1 > /sys/power/enable_off_mode                                           
# echo 1 > /sys/power/voltage_off_while_idle                                    
# echo 1 > /sys/power/sleep_while_idle                                          

and after UART inactivity, I start to see sys_off_mode LED blinking.
