ARM: psci: cpuidle: Introduce PSCI CPUidle driver
PSCI firmware is the standard power management control for
all ARM64 based platforms and it is also deployed on some
ARM 32 bit platforms to date.
Idle state entry in PSCI is currently achieved by calling
arm_cpuidle_init() and arm_cpuidle_suspend() in a generic
idle driver, which in turn relies on ARM/ARM64 CPUidle back-end
to relay the call into PSCI firmware if PSCI is the boot method.
Given that PSCI is the standard idle entry method on ARM64 systems
(which means that no other CPUidle driver are expected on ARM64
platforms - so PSCI is already a generic idle driver), in order to
simplify idle entry and code maintenance, it makes sense to have a PSCI
specific idle driver so that idle code that it is currently living in
drivers/firmware directory can be hoisted out of it and moved
where it belongs, into a full-fledged PSCI driver, leaving PSCI code
in drivers/firmware as a pure firmware interface, as it should be.
Implement a PSCI CPUidle driver. By default it is a silent Kconfig entry
which is left unselected, since it selection would clash with the
generic ARM CPUidle driver that provides a PSCI based idle driver
through the arm/arm64 arches back-ends CPU operations.
