Ok, will do.

Sure ? :)

It is a bit redundant drivers/cpuidle/cpuidle-at91.c, no ? and if all
the cpuidle drivers are there, the directory content will look:

cpuidle/cpuidle-tegra114.c
cpuidle/cpuidle-tegra20.c
cpuidle/cpuidle-tegra30.c
cpuidle/cpuidle-imx5.c
cpuidle/cpuidle-imx6.c
cpuidle/cpuidle-kirkwood.c
cpuidle/cpuidle-calxeda.c
cpuidle/cpuidle-shmobile.c
cpuidle/cpuidle-intel-idle.c
cpuidle/cpuidle-at91.c
cpuidle/cpuidle-omap34xx.c
cpuidle/cpuidle-omap44xx.c
cpuidle/cpuidle-ux500.c
cpuidle/cpuidle-exynos4.c
cpuidle/cpuidle-acpi.c
cpuidle/cpuidle-pseries.c
cpuidle/cpuidle-sh.c
cpuidle/cpuidle-s3c64xx.c
cpuidle/cpuidle-davinci.c

etc ...

But I won't argue if you really want cpuidle-at91.c, it is a detail IMO.

Thanks
