I think this is ugly.  I know we already have a similar check for
acpi_idle_driver in acpi_processor_add(), and I think that's ugly, too
:)

The standard register/unregister_driver() model does not require
looking at what's currently registered, and I don't think this should
be any different.

I don't know the mechanism for choosing either acpi_idle_driver or
intel_idle_driver, but I think you can accomplish what you want here
by just adding a static "acpi_idle_registered" variable to remember
whether the cpuidle_register_driver() was successful, and only do the
unregister if it was.
