As you noticed their meaning is interleaving. For example on SC7280 we
use arm,idle-state for cluster. But other Qualcomm platforms rather
define clusters as domain-idle-states and in that case, nothing parses
tgat flag. The flag is only for cpuidle dt_idle_states. For
power-domains it was always ignored.

Funny fact - both cpu/cluster idle-states and power-domain-idle-states
will end up eventually in cpuidle-psci.c...

Krzysztof
