But as Rafael suggested, it would make more sense to create a driver per cpu [1]. This patch adds support for multiple cpuidle drivers. It creates a per cpu cpuidle driver pointer. In order to not break the different drivers, the function cpuidle_register_driver assign for each cpu, the driver. The multiple driver support is optional and if it is not set, the cpuide driver core code remains the same (except some code reorganisation). I did the following tests compiled, booted, tested without/with CONFIG_CPU_IDLE, with/without CONFIG_CPU_IDLE_MULTIPLE_DRIVERS.
