For ACPI platforms it is necessary to go through a handshake to
determine whether LPI can use OSI (see 6.2.11.2 in the ACPI 6.1 spec).
So there will have to be some ACPI-specific code to determine whether
OSI should be used.

We will probably have to an ACPI-specific wrapper for
psci_init_cpu_suspend to cater for that. I don't think that
psci_init_cpu_suspend itself should be in charge of deciding whether to
enable OSI.

Thanks,
Mark.
