Use ARRAY_SIZE() there?

Can't you call memcpy() once:

memcpy(drv->states, tegra_idle_states,
		drv->state_count * sizeof(drv->states[0]));

... although I personally much preferred when all this was just static
initialization directly in tegra_idle_driver, rather than all this messy
copying. Really, struct cpuidle_driver should point at the array, rather
than including it.

Shouldn't the code in that else branch have a run-time check for whether
it's running on Tegra20? When compiled without Tegra20 support,
tegra20_cpu_set_resettable_soon() is a dummy static inline, but when
both Tegra20 and Tegra30 are compiled in, isn't that code going to run
when it shouldn't; pm.c being a common file.

(Peter again, can you please review/ack this series. Thanks)
