[RFC][PATCH 1/3] cpuidle governor API changes

2007-03-24 Thread Adam Belay
This patch prepares cpuidle for the menu governor. It adds an optional stage after idle state entry to give the governor an opportunity to check why the state was exited. Also it makes sure the idle loop returns after each state entry, allowing the appropriate dynticks code to run. Thanks, Adam
