Just to confirm, yes, it is already implemeted on ARM, and in mainline
for the TI OMAP3 (ARM Cortex-A8) and in commercial products (Nokia
N900, Moto Droid, Palm Pre, Archos, etc.)  For the OMAP the deepest
C-state is actually a fully powered-down ARM core.

While the Droid uses 'suspend as idle' in addition to opportunistic
suspend, the N900 *never* suspends in the traditional sense, it is
entirely idle based.
