Jisheng Zhang b5fda7ed5c arm64: cpuidle: make arm_cpuidle_suspend() a bit more efficient 
Currently, we check two pointers: cpu_ops and cpu_suspend on every idle
state entry. These pointers check can be avoided:

If cpu_ops has not been registered, arm_cpuidle_init() will return
-EOPNOTSUPP, so arm_cpuidle_suspend() will never have chance to
run. In other word, the cpu_ops check can be avoid.

Similarly, the cpu_suspend check could be avoided in this hot path by
moving it into arm_cpuidle_init().

I measured the 4096 * time from arm_cpuidle_suspend entry point to the
cpu_psci_cpu_suspend entry point. HW platform is Marvell BG4CT STB
board.

1. only one shell, no other process, hot-unplug secondary cpus, execute
the following cmd

while true
do
	sleep 0.2
done

before the patch: 1581220ns

after the patch: 1579630ns

reduced by 0.1%

2. only one shell, no other process, hot-unplug secondary cpus, execute
the following cmd

while true
do
	md5sum /tmp/testfile
	sleep 0.2
done

NOTE: the testfile size should be larger than L1+L2 cache size

before the patch: 1961960ns
after the patch: 1912500ns

reduced by 2.5%

So the more complex the system load, the bigger the improvement.
