This patch introduces a new Kconfig symbol, ACPI_PROCESSOR_IDLE,
which is auto selected by architectures which support the ACPI
based C states for CPU Idle management.
The processor_idle driver in its present form contains declarations
specific to X86 and IA64. Since there are no reasonable defaults
for other architectures e.g. ARM64, the driver is selected only by
the arch/x86/Kconfig.
This helps in decoupling the ACPI processor_driver from the ACPI
processor_idle driver which is useful for the upcoming alternative
patchwork for controlling CPU Performance (CPPC) and CPU Idle (LPI).

In general, you need to split this series so that initially few patches
deal with all the existing Kconfig fix-ups and then introduce
PCC/PSS/CPPC related stuffs. That would help me rebase and test _LPI
support.
Hm. I tried to maintain bisectability and make it easier for you to
rebase LPI patchwork too. Let me see if I can revisit now that I'm
back from vacation. :)
How about you just drop any idle related changes so that I will handle
that to keep it simple.
