PM: cpuidle: Fix cpuidle_poll_state_init() prototype
is necessary on top of this to fix a build issue on 32-bit x86 when
CONFIG_CPU_IDLE is not set.
The filename of the patch is:
x86-pm-make-apm-idle-driver-initialize-polling-state.patch
and it can be found in the queue-4.15 subdirectory.
If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree,
please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it.

commit f859422075165e32c00c8d75d63f300015cc07ae upstream.
Update the APM driver overlooked by commit 1b39e3f813b4 (cpuidle: Make
drivers initialize polling state) to initialize the polling state like
the other cpuidle drivers modified by that commit to prevent cpuidle
from crashing.
Fixes: 1b39e3f813b4 (cpuidle: Make drivers initialize polling state)
