Which firmware are you using, and what precisely does it do w.r.t.
those idle states? Judging by the FVP ATF pm code [1], those state IDs
aren't valid (though perhaps the comment is wrong, or I've misunderstood
something).

People use the FVPs with a variety of FW and bootloaders, so I'm not
keen on putting anything FW or bootloader specific into the canonical
FVP DT files.

Please add stdout-path, e.g.

	stdout-path = "serial0:115200";

The cpumask shouldn't be there (it's not valid for GICv3).

FW should program CNTFRQ correctly, so we should drop the
clock-frequency property. We should never have had it in the first place
for the original RTSM DT.

Thanks,
Mark.
