Yep, PMD developer can ignore recommendations and do whatever
he wants in the call-back. We can't control it.
If he touches some memory in it - probably there will be more spurious wakeups and less power saves.
In principle it is the same with all other PMD dev-ops - we have to trust that they are
doing what they have to.
