Lorenzo Pieralisi	9f14da3455	drivers: cpuidle: implement DT based idle states infrastructure ... On most common ARM systems, the low-power states a CPU can be put into are not discoverable in HW and require device tree bindings to describe power down suspend operations and idle states parameters. In order to enable DT based idle states and configure idle drivers, this patch implements the bulk infrastructure required to parse the device tree idle states bindings and initialize the corresponding CPUidle driver states data. The parsing API accepts a start index that defines the first idle state that should be initialized by the parsing code in order to give new and legacy driver flexibility over which states should be parsed using the new DT mechanism. The idle states node(s) is obtained from the phandle list of the first cpu in the driver cpumask; the kernel checks that the idle state node phandle is the same for all CPUs in the driver cpumask before declaring the idle state as valid and start parsing its content. The idle state enter function pointer is initialized through DT match structures passed in by the CPUidle driver, so that ARM legacy code can cope with platform specific idle entry method based on compatible string matching and the code used to initialize the enter function pointer can be moved to the DT generic layer.
