A few nits are all I spotted.

Start with a tab instead of 8 spaces, please.

Is this include actually needed? I haven't tried building this without
that include, but I spotted nothing obviously module related in this
file.

Since this can only be built in, THIS_MODULE will (basically) be
equivalent to NULL according to include/linux/export.h. So I suppose
this line can be dropped.

I did notice that these two nits are already present in
drivers/cpuidle/cpuidle-arm64.c. But since this patch is not just moving
that file's content around, you might as well look into those two nits.
