Actually, a question, probably for Lorenzo - why do we need to call
cpu_init_idle() from the driver? Is there any dependency on what the
driver had done before this call? If not, I suggest a core_initcall() in
the arch code for cpu_init_idle(). At a quick look through the code, the
back-end can be initialised on its own.
