This changelog makes zero sense to me.
1. PSCI specification makes no reference to "cpu idle framework".
It's not a Linux specification to reference anything specific to
Linux CPUIdle framework.
2. "for CPU_SUSPEND call,...bit[16] of state parameter must be 0."
Where exactly to you see that ? Specification tells what value of
0 or 1 in bit[16] means.
3. Is this retention state and doesn't need any save restore ? If not
this change is wrong and will break if and when we use
CPU_PM_CPU_IDLE_ENTER_RETENTION if this bit is not set.
