[PATCH] Exynos4: cpuidle: support dual CPUs with AFTR state

Hi Daniel,

If I may ask - do you plan to develop this code for Exynos4412 in a
near future?

I did some tests (with hotplug) and it turns out, that due to static
leakage current one can save up to 12 % of power consumption when power
domains for cores are disabled. 


Such notable power consumption reduction could drive (and justify) the
further development of power aware scheduling code.

If you don't have time, then I can offer myself to develop the code. I
just want to avoid potential duplication of effort.
