Currently CPUs idle states and idle states of its parent are represented
in a flattened model by the cpu-dile-states property of the CPU node.
The CPUs idle states are followed by its cluster idle states. With the
introduction of CPU PM domains, the CPUs and domain idle states may be
represented hierarchically as part of the domain DT definition. This
would mean presenting idle state information in 2 places - CPU nodes for
the CPU and the cluster's with the PM domains.

Also, it makes sense to define domains around each individual CPU since
each of them is a power domain in its own right. The CPU idle states can
now be represented as its domain's idle state, defined by the
domain-idle-states property. This avoids presenting idle states in
multiple places in the DT.

Modify the DT-based cpuidle driver to check for the presence of a CPU's
domain and if present read the domain-idle-states of the PM domain and
if the CPU's domain is absent, revert to reading in the cpu-idle-states
property of the CPU DT node.

Should probably have an of_node_put to match this.

So if a CPU has a power domain but that domain doesn't have any idle
states, then we fall back to cpu-idle-states?

I think the presence of a power domain for a CPU should mean
cpu-idle-states is totally ignored, and this should be made clear in the
power_domain.txt binding doc.

(I have had this conversation with someone before, I think it was
 internal at ARM but if I'm wrong and we've already discussed it then
 I'm sorry!)

This patch only supports using domain-idle-states for the CPU-level idle
states, i.e. it only looks at one level of the power-domains graph
rather than walking it and "linearising"/"flattening" the discovered
states into a cpuidle-friendly list.

That's not a reason against merging this patch but we should note the
limitation and maybe even print a warning in if we find a parent for the
CPU's power domain but we're using cpuidle rather than runtime PM.

Cheers,
Brendan
