Subject: [v11 PATCH 5/9]: POWER: enable cpuidle for POWER.
Date: Tue, 9 Feb 2010 14:03:26 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100209083326.GF29988@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20100209082815.GA29988@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

* Arun R Bharadwaj <arun@linux.vnet.ibm.com> [2010-02-09 13:58:16]:

This patch enables the cpuidle option in Kconfig for pSeries.

Currently cpuidle infrastructure is enabled only for x86 and ARM.
This code is almost completely borrowed from x86 to enable
cpuidle for pSeries.
