So noMMU builds are supported in a single image with MMU builds?
Instead of having to #ifdef all around the place, wouldn't it be better
for the noMMU headers to provide an empty definition for this function?

This unfortunately isn't really correct, and the patch I sent in
"[PATCH] ARM: mvebu: select ARM_CPU_SUSPEND for Marvell EBU v7
platforms" on June, 11th already fixes the cpu_suspend()/cpu_resume()
problem.

The issue with your solution is that it assumes this function is only
used for cpuidle. That is indeed the case in v3.16, but will be wrong
as soon as we add CPU hotplug support, which I have posted on May, 30th
in "[PATCH 0/5] CPU hotplug for Marvell Armada XP", and which I hope to
see included in v3.17.

Thanks!

Thomas
