Subject: [RFC PATCH V1 4/7] cpuidle: (powerpc) Add cpu_idle_wait() to allow switching idle routines
Date: Tue, 07 Jun 2011 22:00:04 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110607162959.6848.26918.stgit@tringupt.in.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20110607162847.6848.44707.stgit@tringupt.in.ibm.com>

This patch provides cpu_idle_wait() routine required
by the cpuidle subsystem. Almost all the code is borrowed
from x86.
