Meta:
Headline: Mainline the cpuidle driver for OMAP
Acceptance: cpuidle driver for OMAP accepted upstream, power-qa cpuidle tests pass without regression
Roadmap id: PMWG2011-CPUIDLE-UPSTREAMING

Status 2012/03/28 - bugs in OMAP implementation; reset milestone to 2012.04
Status 2012/04/24 - TILT still on older 3.3 kernel; reset milestone to 2012.05

Status: 2012/05/21
 It was decided to postpone due to a variety of factors:
1) needed Colin Cross' coupled cpuidle state patches to be rebased/merged
2) needed Kevin Hilman's OMAP cpuidle patches to be rebased/merged
 Linaro is not developing this software, just tracking it and integrating into TILT
Need to check wuth Andy Green on TILT inclusion

Status: 2013/03/26 (amitk)
OMAP cpuidle driver with couple C-state support is merged in mainline and hence available in linux-linaro

(?)
