Background

Previously if a older kernel runs on a newer firmware, it may enable
all available states irrespective of its capability of handling it.
Consider a case that some stop state has a bug, we end up disabling all
the stop states. This patch introduces selective control to
Instead of passing psscr_val and psscr_mask, we will pass state pointer
to stop loop. This will help to figure out the method to enter/exit idle
state. Removed psscr_mask and psscr_val from driver idle code. Same has
also been done in platform idle code.
Also, added some cleanups and debugging info
New device tree format adds a compatible flag which has version
corresponding to every state, so that only kernel which has the capability
to handle the version of stop state will enable it. Drawback of the array
based dt node is that versioning of idle states is not possible.
Older kernel will st
Removed threshold latency which was being used to decide if a state
is cpuidle type or not. This decision can be taken using flags, as this
information has been encapsulated in the state->flags and being read
from idle device-tree.

On mpc83xx with a QE, IMMR is 2Mbytes.
On mpc83xx without a QE, IMMR is 1Mbytes.
Each driver will map a part of it to access the registers it needs.
Some driver will map the same part of IMMR as other drivers.
In order to reduce TLB misses, map the full IMMR with a BAT.
