Subject: [PATCH] cpuidle: move field disable from per-driver to per-cpu

From: ShuoX Liu <shuox.liu@...el.com>

Andrew J.Schorr raises a question. When he changes the disable setting
on a single CPU, it affects all the other CPUs. Basically, currently,
the disable field is per-driver instead of per-cpu. All the C states of
the same driver are shared by all CPU in the same machine.

Below patch changes field disable to per-cpu, so we could set this
separately for each cpu.
