Calling cpuidle_enter_state is expected to return with interrupts

Colin,
There is still some window where irq remains enabled after exiting safe
state. It may introduce some corner case.
Instead of this can we pass a parameter to cpuidle_enter_state
indicating that irq has to be enabled or not after exit from idle state,
which would be false when entering safe state from coupled idle.
