[RESEND PATCH v1 3/3] cpuidle: (POWER) Fix snooze state problem persistant in the current cpuidle design on pseries.

Earlier without cpuidle framework on pseries, the native arch idle routine comprised of both snooze and nap states. smt_snooze_delay variable was used to delay the idle process entry to deeper idle state like nap. With the coming of cpuidle, this arch specific idle was replaced by two different i
