The only reason that remains, to why the ARM cpuidle driver calls cpuidle_register_driver(), is to avoid printing an error message in case another driver already have been registered for the CPU. This seems a bit silly, but more importantly, if that is a common scenario, perhaps we should change cpuidle_register() accordingly instead. In either case, let's consolidate the code, by converting to use cpuidle_register|unregsiter(), which also avoids the unnecessary allocation of the struct cpuidle_device.
