ERROR: "pm_idle" [arch/x86/kernel/apm.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "default_idle" [arch/x86/kernel/apm.ko] undefined!


Fix was posted by Andy Whitcroft on June 8 and Ben Hutchings on June 9.

Below is Andy's patch since it was posted first.
Please merge some fix.


---
The commit below removed the export for pm_idle/default_idle unless the
apm module was modularised and CONFIG_APM_CPU_IDLE was set.  The apm
module uses pm_idle/default_idle unconditionally, CONFIG_APM_CPU_IDLE
only affects the bios idle threshold.  Adjust the export accordingly.
