Hi Daniel

There was a discussion about device tree bindings when i posted
the kirkwood cpuidle driver, now in drivers/cpuidle/cpuidle-kirkwood.c.

The conclusion was that pseudo devices, like cpuidle, do not have DT
bindings. They can check of_machine_is_compatible(), like
cpuidle-calxeda.c does, or they are platform drivers, which is what
cpuidle-kirkwood.c is.

Even if DT binding was allowed, it again should not be ARM specific.

Are coupled idle states ARM specific?
