BTW, I've seen this pattern a few times already. Do you think it would
be useful to change the dt_init_idle_driver() API to take a function
pointer as argument and populate it there? The only drawback would be if
we want different functions based on the states that have been
populated (not sure whether we'll need the flexibility in the future).
Either way, my ack on this patch stands.
