Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Deletes  arch/arm/mach-gemini/idle.c

This patch deletes the above file in order to remove the function
in this file that may cause races. In addition this function is
no longer needed due to commit 8182a34d85698 fixing this issue.
Therefore gemmi_idle is no longer needed and due to in being the
only function in this file I am removing it.
