Subject: [PATCH 3.16 035/148] cpuidle: Do not unset the driver if it is
 there already

3.16.82-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Zhenzhong Duan <zhenzhong.duan@...cle.com>

commit 918c1fe9fbbe46fcf56837ff21f0ef96424e8b29 upstream.

Fix __cpuidle_set_driver() to check if any of the CPUs in the mask has
a driver different from drv already and, if so, return -EBUSY before
updating any cpuidle_drivers per-CPU pointers.

Fixes: 82467a5a885d ("cpuidle: simplify multiple driver support")
