Thanks your advice.
Look like key point still only WFI function when cpuidle.
As I explain before, only enable generic ARM cpuidle driver is not work.
It need enable-method code to assign cpuidle_ops functions.
"psci" is one of enable-method, but there have problem in my side due to smc or secure code unsupported.
So I create cpuidle-sunplus.c code with "sunplus,sc-smp" to let cpuidle code complete for our source code. 
With this structure, I can add more custom low power code in the future.

What does it mean for "please document the chosen "sunplus,sc-smp" as bot cpu idle and hotplug methods" ?
Does it mean "edit yaml file"? (Previously, I submit yaml file also, but Rob say I don't need submit when I use compatible="arm,idle-state")
