Subject: [RFC PATCH 1/3] cpuidle: split cpuidle_idle_call main function into functions

In order to allow better integration between the cpuidle framework and the
scheduler, reducing the distance between the sub-component helps.

This patch splits the cpuidle_idle_call main entry function into 3 big chunks
of API:
 1. select the idle state
 2. enter the idle state
 3. reflect the idle state

The cpuidle_idle_call now calls these three functions to implement the main
idle entry function.
