Add idle power save for ppc 4xx
This patch sets the wait state MSR when power_save is called in cpu_idle loop
for ppc4xx. This is mainly to help out virtualization solutions such as KVM.
This way the virtualization soultions are able to tell if the guest kernel is
idle.
I have tested this on hardware & KVM virtual guest.
