Log Message:
arm64: Enable support for low power idle CPU states on ACPI platforms.
The ACPI CPU driver parses the _LPI package on each CPU and builds a
table of supported low power states. A custom cpu_idle() implementation
is registered that uses the time previously spent idle to select an
entry method for low power on the next idle entry.
A boot option, "nolpi", can be used to ignore _LPI and use the normal
WFI idle method.
This decreases the battery discharge rate on my Snapdragon X1E laptop from
~17W to ~10W when idle.
