[PATCH v2 00/12] CPU idle for Armada XP

Hello,

This patch set adds the CPU idle support for Armada XP and prepares
the support for Armada 370. This was based on the work of Nadav
Haklai.

Most of the patches modify the mvebu code in order to prepare the
support for CPU idle, hence the patches 2 to 10 should go to mvebu
subsystem (and then arm-soc).

The first patch should go through ARM subsystem and should be taken
by Russell King.

The 11th patch 'cpuidle: mvebu: Add initial cpu idle support for
Armada 370/XP SoC' is the only one who should go to the cpuidle
subsystem. But of course I would like that Daniel Lezcano or Rafael
J. Wysocki have a look on the whole series.

The last patch should also go to mvebu subsystem (and then arm-soc)
but with an Acked-by from on of the device tree maintainer.

The whole series is also available in the branch CPU-idle-ArmadaXP-v2
at https://github.com/MISL-EBU-System-SW/mainline-public.git

Thanks,

Changelog:

v1 -> v2:

* Removed the pm_level kernel parameter. As Kevin Hilman pointed, its
  usage can be replaced by using
  /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpuidle/state*/disable or the kernel
  parameter cpuidle.off.

* Used BIT() macro (reported by Ezequiel)

* Made the function more readable the
  armada_370_xp_pmsu_idle_prepare() function (reported by Thomas)

* Moved the config entry in Kconfig.arm, and rename the config symbol
  according the pattern used by other arm cpu: ARM_"soc name"_CPUIDLE

* Moved the build rule under the new ARM SoC section in the Makefile

* Rebased on Linus Torvalds master branch of Thursday September 12
