My S-state knowledge is not strong, but I believe that Lorenzo's
questions matter if we're using S2 for CPUidle (where we actually turn
off power and hot unplug CPUs) but not when we're using S1 for CPUidle

No Its not plain WFI.
All cores in Exynos5420 can be powered off independently.
This functionality has been tested.
Below is the link for the posted patches.

And as Nicolas wrote, these patches need MCPM for that.
Most excellent! I should have been more clear that I only knew about
how CPUidle worked in our local production kernel. There I'm pretty
sure CPUidle is just WFI/WFE. If you've got patches to do better then
that's great!
...can you confirm that my patch doesn't interfere with your improved
CPUidle? It's been Acked by Nicolas (thanks!) so I'd imagine it will
land shortly. Kukjin: I assume you'll be taking this?
Sure, I will ;-)
Thanks,
Kukjin
