I think we should call this ARM64_CPU_SUSPEND. The cpuidle drivers need
to be modified anyway since things like set_cr(), scu_power_mode() etc.
no longer apply. If a driver supports both, that's great, it can select
both ARM and ARM64.

Longer term, I would like a generic cpuidle driver for PSCI with DT
bindings for describing the sleep states, target residency (not sure how
this would look like yet).
