This is clearly a policy and not a hardware or firmware feature to expose
in the device tree. So NACK, why can't you load it modules if you don't want
idle states in the boot.
Attempt of making cpuidle governors to modular was rejected in past [2]

It is same as choosing any default governor or performance states, will you
add those next ? It is simply policy not a feature/property to be exposed
in the device tree.
