If the guest hypervisor node contains "has-idle" property.

v2:
1. move the idle code into assembly.
2. move the part that check "has-idle" into epapr code.

How is that specific to e500? Isn't it just the generic epapr implementation?

Except for this part of course :). But I'm sure we can generalize this.

The way it's now it would break kernels with this patch if we ever choose to implement hcall_idle for non-e500. Please make the code generic :)
