A build error is triggered by the missing ";".

This code is not necessarily balanced with the PER state change in
omap3_enter_idle_bm (cf. "/* Are we changing PER target state? */"
here below), since in the core cpuidle code there is no guarantee that
the calls to pre_enter and enter callbacks are balanced.
In general I fear that splitting the code in two functions introduces
a risk of programming non-coherent settings in the PRCM.

The build throws a few warnings about unused variables:

arch/arm/mach-omap2/cpuidle34xx.c: In function 'omap3_enter_idle_bm':
arch/arm/mach-omap2/cpuidle34xx.c:261: warning: unused variable 'ret'
arch/arm/mach-omap2/cpuidle34xx.c:257: warning: unused variable 'new_state_idx'

Also the line at 373 is not needed anymore in omap3_idle_init, since
the enter callback is filled in in the _fill_cstate function:
        /* C1 . MPU WFI + Core active */
        _fill_cstate(drv, 0, "MPU ON + CORE ON");
        (&drv->states[0])->enter = omap3_enter_idle;             <==
not needed anymore
        drv->safe_state_index = 0;

More testing on OMAP3 is needed. Let me come back with the results asap.

Jean
