"idle states", this is not ACPI.

I can't have a look at this and avoid thinking that this should look
something like:
static qcom_cpu_idle(...., int index)
{
lpm_ops[index].enter_idle(...);
return index;
}
Before jumping to conclusions, see below.

This driver will be DT only. If an idle state is parsed correctly,
it is initialized, otherwise it is skipped. Now, if we added glue
code in arch arm (as arm64 does) that allows us to link an idle state
index with the functions above (a DT idle state contains all information
required to initialize its enter function, more so now that we are adding
power domains to the picture), what would be the issue in defining a
common API that just passes the index to the arch back-end ? No pointers
to pass, no platform drivers required and still no arch/soc code in
drivers/cpuidle.
I am obviously talking about DT CPUidle drivers only.
If the idle state is parsed correctly and the backend initializer (let's
call it arm_cpu_init_idle(cpu)) is successful (which means that DT idle
states contain valid information and the enter functions could be
initialized from DT properly) I do not see what's the problem, give it
some thought.
Anyway, I will put together an RFC to start the discussion when patch is
merged and patch the relevant code as an example, you can go ahead with
current code, I am reviewing it.
