Some firmwares do not put the CPU into idle mode themselves, but still need to be informed that the CPU is about to enter idle mode before this happens.

I wonder if .do_idle() couldn't simply return an appropriate error code to let the upper layer know that it should proceed with normal CPU idle activation, while still letting the firmware know that the CPU is going to idle.
