Hi Guodong, Wei and all,

As Daniel reminded, this patch is dependent on patch (ARM: cpuidle:
Support asymmetric idle definition) [1] but his patch has not been
finally merged yet. So let us hold on this patch for Daniel's patch
is picked up firstly.

At the meantime welcome the review and comment for this patch ahead.
