Need to check if the calloc failed and return an error if it did.

Here too.

Hmm, should this warn if state is not zero and disabled is negative.

Should probably have a check to see if saved_cpu_idle_disable exists.

As well as saved_cpu_idle_disable_state[cpu] exists.

Just for robustness.

No need to check here. free() works fine with passing NULL to it.
