There is an inconsistency between ARM and ARM64. The 'cpu_get_ops', the
arm_cpuidle_read_ops from the ARM64 side, returns -EOPNOTSUPP when the
init function is not there for cpuidle.
I don't think it is a problem, but as ARM/ARM64 are sharing the same
cpuidle-arm.c driver it would make sense to unify the behavior between
both archs.
