I don't like the name 'C0' for an idle-state.  In ACPI terms, C0 is an
active state, not an idle state.  I know this is not an ACPI system,
but since we're using ACPI names, we should be consistent.

Is there a real benefit to having an additional state here?  Shouldn't
we just make these changes or C1?

Also, for a single patch, can you include the description in the patch
itself instead of the 'PATCH 0/1'.  Thanks.

Kevin
