GSM has direct access to battery for PA, and via a MOSFET switch for GSM
logic.  For PMU switcher regulator performance when "off":

''... A pull-down switch on the output of DOWN1 guarantees an output
voltage of 0 V when the regulator is switched off.  A pull-down switch
on the output of DOWN2 guarantees an output voltage of 0 V when
both DOWN2 and MEMLDO are switched off. ...''

p56, and about AUTO (IO_3V3):

''... Pull-down switches on the outputs guarantees an output voltage of
0 V when the regulator is switched off. ...''

p58.

Yeah but Joerg is telling you that IO_3V3, the "on while anything is on"
IO power for CPU and most everything else is down when the device is in
"off" state, and I am telling you it means it goes quickly to 0V in this
case as quoted above.

So, which pins still have any high level that can feed GSM side through
protection diodes in this situation?  CPU doesn't have any rail above 0V...
