This was posted as an RFC, as there were a couple of ToDos listed in this patch series which I thought needed additional review before I could ask for inclusion. To Do : ====== 1. Russell King pointed out that in (V5 1/4) of this patch in arch/arm/mach-at91/cpuidle.c, AT91 pieces may be broken. In at91_enter_idle() routine, folks need to fix the two consecutive asm() statements by combining it to one as per the GCC reference manual. Reference: https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/6/6/273 2. In (V6 4/4), handle the case when idle states may change at run time and acpi_processor_cst_has_changed() routine is called in a better way than the current solution in this patch. In this current solution where global registration is implemented, the boot cpu on x86 would disable all the devices, repopulate the states and later enable all the devices, irrespective of the cpu that would receive the notification first.
