Why is needed to mask 'address' ?


This is as per Section 3.1.1 FFH Usage in LPI state entry methods in [1]

[...]

  int psci_cpu_init_idle(unsigned int cpu)
  {
      struct device_node *cpu_node;
      int ret;

+    if (!acpi_disabled)
+        return psci_acpi_cpu_init_idle(cpu);

Is it possible the case where there is information in both the DT and in
ACPI ? So ACPI is enabled without idle information which is in the DT ?


No, as Rafael mentioned aready.


Either you do this, or we have to add it somehow somewhere in
drivers/cpuidle to avoid duplicating it.

@Daniel: do you have an opinion on this please ?

Yes, this function should be added to avoid duplication.


So, I assume you are happy with the way it's handled in this patch ?
(I will rename the file as suggested by Lorenzo)
