Hi Trinabh,

I just wanted to get comments on the design and understand how it
affects various architectures in question. It looks to me as if the
design should be okay and infact better for architectures like ARM
since they do not have different idle states for different cpus and
thus do not require per-cpu registration.  Global registration would
work and be simpler; please correct me if I am wrong.
Yes, I agree that the new design is better, I especially like that it's
more clear (and expected) that final state decision making is to be done
directly in the driver without the back-and-forth in the current setup.

Thanks,

Kevin
