Hi Nicolas,

Find below the patch that will need to be squashed with this one.
This patch is based on the mainline.Adding Deepthi, the author of
the patch which introduced the powernv cpuidle driver. Deepthi,
do you think the below patch looks right? We do not need to do an
explicit local_irq_enable() since we are in the call path of
cpuidle driver and that explicitly enables irqs on exit from
idle states.

Yes, We enable irqs explicitly while entering snooze loop and we always
have interrupts enabled in the snooze state.
For NAP state, we exit out of this state with interrupts enabled so we
do not need an explicit enable of irqs.

                ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
We could move this before the while() loop.
It would ideal to turn off latch when we enter snooze and
turn it on when we are about to exit, rather than doing
it over and over in the while loop.

You are right, this can be moved out of the loop.
