Lorenzo Pieralisi 9ffeb6d08c PSCI: cpuidle: Refactor CPU suspend power_state parameter handling
Current PSCI code handles idle state entry through the
psci_cpu_suspend_enter() API, that takes an idle state index as a
parameter and convert the index into a previously initialized
power_state parameter before calling the PSCI.CPU_SUSPEND() with it.

This is unwieldly, since it forces the PSCI firmware layer to keep track
of power_state parameter for every idle state so that the
index->power_state conversion can be made in the PSCI firmware layer
instead of the CPUidle driver implementations.

Move the power_state handling out of drivers/firmware/psci
into the respective ACPI/DT PSCI CPUidle backends and convert
the psci_cpu_suspend_enter() API to get the power_state
parameter as input, which makes it closer to its firmware
interface PSCI.CPU_SUSPEND() API.

A notable side effect is that the PSCI ACPI/DT CPUidle backends
now can directly handle (and if needed update) power_state
parameters before handing them over to the PSCI firmware
interface to trigger PSCI.CPU_SUSPEND() calls.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
