3.3-rc1 has uart runtime patches merged we have removed uart dependency
for system to enter low powers states and used pm_qos calls,
but pm_qos api's seem do get activated only by enabling  config_cpu_idle.

Question to kevin/Paul,

Shouldn't system be doing wfi if cpu_idle is not enabled ?

since we are mapping omap3_pm_idle to pm_idle thread
system enters low power states even if config_cpu_idle is not enabled.
Is this expected behavior?
