Subject: [PATCH 2/6] powerpc, powernv,
 CPU hotplug: Put offline CPUs in Fast-Sleep instead of Nap

From: Srivatsa S. Bhat <srivatsa.bhat@...ux.vnet.ibm.com>

The offline cpus are put to fast sleep if the idle state is discovered in the
device tree. This is to gain maximum powersavings in the offline state.
