Right, the use of cpu_is_xxx() should be avoid where possible.

We can have a variable to be initialized per different SoC type, which
in turn can be figured out from device tree with
of_machine_is_compatible().

We will need the following additional line in
arch/arm/mach-imx/Makefile, right?

obj-$(CONFIG_SOC_IMX6UL) += cpuidle-imx6sx.o
