Generally speaking, yes, that is true on both points.  The only caveat is
that there could be a minor power penalty if APPS votes for OFF+HPM and a
non-HLOS processor votes for ON+LPM for the same regulator.  This would
lead to an aggregated state of ON+HPM when only ON+LPM is really needed.

Take care,
David
