It did slip through the cracks. Lorenzo's last comment was "I am fine
with enabling the idle states, I need to review and test the idle states
DT data in the patch first though." and I didn't chase things up.

The patch will need refreshing to add idle for Juno r1. Which will then
probably resurrect the discussion about where the numbers come from for
residency times, and are the same ones for r0 valid on r1 (and r2?).

In an effort to forestall that I would say: does anyone actually care if
the values are optimal? Juno is a reference platform and powered off
mains, so tuning for the optimum power consumption is pretty pointless.
But because it _is_ used as a reference by people it should at least
have these features enabled, to serve as an example, and for test
coverage.
