I don't care very much either way.  I think I just thought it was
nicer for the driver to locally remember "I registered, therefore I
should unregister/init new CPUs."  Apparently there can be several
idle drivers, and I don't know what happens if you register more than
one or what cpuidle_get_driver() means in that case.
