In order to integrate cpuidle with the scheduler, we must have a better
proximity in the core code with what cpuidle is doing and not delegate
such interaction to arch code.
Architectures implementing arch_cpu_idle() should simply enter
a cheap idle mode in the absence of a proper cpuidle driver.

This patch without the next ones will lead to an extra call to
cpuidle_idle_call.
cpuidle_idle_call
arch_cpu_idle
cpuidle_idle_call
x86_idle
But I guess it is acceptable as it is fixed with the next patches of the
serie.
