[RFC PATCH v15 00/11] ARM: qcom: cpuidle support for 8064, 8074, 8084

[Lina Iyer]

Hi,

I was able to use Daniel's series for the cpuidle_ops [5] and test it on QCOM
SOCs. This alleviates the concerns raised in the previous revision of the QCOM
cpuidle driver.

The previous revision of the QCOM cpuidle driver [1], creates cpuidle device
after a successful probe of the SPM device for the CPU.  There was a concern
regarding the initialization of unnecesary devices on a multi-v7 configuration
[2]. The solutions proposed to solve this problem didnt turn up elegant either
because of the restriction with the existing cpuidle framework.

With Daniel's patches [5], I was able to address the concerns with the cpuidle
driver and devices intialization. Please take a look at this series. The crux
of the difference from the previous series [1] is in the spm_drv_probe() and
registering of the cpuidle_ops and use of ARM generic cpuidle driver.

Changes since v14:
- Support for cpuidle_ops
- SPM probe changes to register cpuidle
- Rebase on top of 4.0-rc1
- Remove SCM patches from series. Rebased on top of Kumar's tree[4]
- Removed cpuidle-qcom.c in favor of ARM generic cpuidle driver
- Included Daniel's change for supporting creating cpuidle devices by platform

Tested on: 8074, 8084.

Thanks,
Lina
