This is arbitrary and not necessarily true.

I think that this patch is useful to represent my reservations about the
current approach. As a matter of fact, idle state entry will always be a
CPUidle decision.

You only need PM domain information to understand when all CPUs
in a power domain are actually idle but that's all genPD can do
in this respect.

I think this patchset would be much simpler if both CPUidle and
genPD governor would work on *one* set of idle states, globally
indexed (and that would be true for PSCI suspend parameters too).

To work with a unified set of idle states between CPUidle and genPD
(tossing some ideas around):

- We can implement a genPD CPUidle governor that in its select method
  takes into account genPD information (for instance by avoiding
  selection of idle states that require multiple cpus to be in idle
  to be effectively active)
- We can use genPD to enable/disable CPUidle states through runtime
  PM information

There may be other ways. My point is that current code, with two (or
more if the hierarchy grows) sets of idle states across two subsystems
(CPUidle and genPD) is not very well defined and honestly very hard to
grasp and prone to errors.

This (-2) is very dodgy and I doubt it would work on hierarchies going
above "cluster" level.

As I say above, I think we should work towards a single array of
idle states to be selected by a CPUidle governor using genPD
runtime information to bias the results according to the number
of CPUs in a genPD that entered/exit idle.

To be more precise, all idles states should be "domain-idle-state"
compatible, even the CPU ones, the distinction between what CPUidle
and genPD manage is a bit stretched IMO in this patchset.

We will have a chance to talk about this but I thought I would
comment publically if anyone else is willing to chime in, this
is not a PSCI problem at all, it is a CPUidle/genPD coexistence
design problem which is much broader.
