Moreover (along the lines of Nico said) after 
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/4071541/
we actually don't need the #ifdef CONFIG_CPU_IDLE in your patch, because 
cpuidle_select()
for CONFIG_CPU_IDLE unset is a static inline returning a negative number and 
the compiler
should optimize out the blocks that depend on it being non-negative.

Thanks!
