[PATCH v2] powerpc: Enable generic cpu idle-loop

[Vaibhav Jain]

This minor patch enables config option GENERIC_IDLE_POLL_SETUP for arch
powerpc. This should add support for kernel param 'nohlt'.

Powerpc kernel also supports another kernel boot-time param called
'powersave' which can also be used to disable all cpu idle-states and
forces CPU to an idle-loop similar to what cpu_idle_poll() does. Hence this
patch  also updates the handling of 'powersave=off' kernel param to enable
generic cpu idle-loop if its enabled.

* Updated powersave_off() to enable generic cpu idle-loop if
'powersave=off' kernel arg is given. [Mpe]
* Update patch description
