[PATCH V4] ARM: cpuidle: Register per cpuidle device

[Daniel Lezcano]

On some platforms, the low level PM code may not be initialized correctly for
a specific cpu. In this case, the EXNIO tells the cpuidle driver to not
initialize the cpuidle device as the associated low level PM is not operational.

That prevents the system to crash and allows to handle the error gracefully.

For example, on Qcom's platform, each core has a SPM. The device associated
with this SPM is initialized before the cpuidle framework. If there is an error
in the initialization (eg. error in the DT), the system continues to boot but
in degraded mode as some SPM may not be correctly initialized.
