Subject: [RFC] removal of drivers/idle/ directory


Hi,

drivers/idle/ directory currently contains only two drivers:

* intel_idle which is a cpuidle driver for certain Intel processors

* i7300_idle which is a driver for certain Intel x86_64 servers
  (it provides idle memory power savings)

How's about moving intel_idle to drivers/cpuidle/ (where it should
belong as cpuidle driver) and i7300_idle to drivers/platform/x86/
(or eventually to a new directory named drivers/memidle/)?

Best regards,
