Pull powerpc non-virtualized cpuidle from Ben Herrenschmidt:
"This is the branch I mentioned in my other pull request which contains
our improved cpuidle support for the "powernv" platform
(non-virtualized).
It adds support for the "fast sleep" feature of the processor which
provides higher power savings than our usual "nap" mode but at the
cost of losing the timers while asleep, and thus exploits the new
timer broadcast framework to work around that limitation.
It's based on a tip timer tree that you seem to have already merged"
* 'powernv-cpuidle' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/benh/powerpc:
cpuidle/powernv: Parse device tree to setup idle states
cpuidle/powernv: Add "Fast-Sleep" CPU idle state
powerpc/powernv: Add OPAL call to resync timebase on wakeup
powerpc/powernv: Add context management for Fast Sleep
powerpc: Split timer_interrupt() into timer handling and interrupt handling routines
powerpc: Implement tick broadcast IPI as a fixed IPI message
powerpc: Free up the slot of PPC_MSG_CALL_FUNC_SINGLE IPI message

Add deep idle states such as nap and fast sleep to the cpuidle state table
only if they are discovered from the device tree during cpuidle initialization.

Fast sleep is one of the deep idle states on Power8 in which local timers of
CPUs stop. On PowerPC we do not have an external clock device which can
handle wakeup of such CPUs. Now that we have the support in the tick broadcast
framework for archs that do not sport such a device and the low level support
for fast sleep, enable it in the cpuidle framework on PowerNV.

The core idle loop now takes care of it. We need to add the runlatch
function calls to the idle routines which was earlier taken care of by
the arch specific idle routine.

Following patch ports the cpuidle framework for powernv
platform and also implements a cpuidle back-end powernv
idle driver calling on to power7_nap and snooze idle states.
