[PATCH 02/12] arm: omap3: Only sleep during cpu_idle if I/O wake-ups work

From: "Mark A. Greer" <mgreer at animalcreek.com>

Currently in the OMAP3 code, cpu_idle() calls pm_idle(),
which is a function pointer set to omap3_pm_idle()).
omap3_pm_idle() calls omap_sram_idle() which eventually
causes a 'wfi' instruction to be executed effectively
putting the system to sleep.  It is assumed that an
I/O wake-up event will occur to wake the system up again.
This doesn't work on systems that don't support I/O wake-ups
(indicated by omap3_has_io_wakeup() returning false).

Leaving pm_idle() pointing to default_idle() won't work
either because the cpu_<processor>_do_idle() routine which
is eventually called may also execute a 'wfi' instruction
(e.g., cpu_v7_do_idle()).

To handle this, leave pm_idle() pointing to omap3_pm_idle()
but add a check in omap3_pm_idle() so it avoids calling
omap_sram_idle() when I/O wake-ups aren't supported.
