I understand your concern but I have no idea on how to clean up. Lorenzo
asked to factor our common code between psci_{dt,acpi}_cpu_init_idle and
I think you might not like the refactoring[1]. I didn't want to change
cpuidle_ops and hence psci_dt_cpu_init_idle parameters. I will see if
changing that simplifies things.

While I agree, but what we have is ARM specific code here and calling it
generic might not make it any usable on other architecture unless they
have the same semantics. I am fine if you and Rafael are OK with that.
