Why not move the following block at the beginning of the function ?

--->

        /*
         * Call arch CPU operations in order to initialize
         * idle states suspend back-end specific data
         */
        ret = arm_cpuidle_init(cpu);

        /*
         * Skip the cpuidle device initialization if the reported
         * failure is a HW misconfiguration/breakage (-ENXIO).
         */
        if (ret == -ENXIO)
                return 0;

        if (ret) {
                pr_err("CPU %d failed to init idle CPU ops\n", cpu);
                s/goto out_unregister_drv;/return ret;/
        }
