Should that be || not &&?

Isn't the "num_online_cpus() > 1" condition effectively checked at the
call site, i.e. in tegra30_idle_lp2() below via the if (last_cpu) check?

Hmm. That means that if the last CPU to enter LP2 is e.g. CPU1, then
even though all CPUs are now in LP2, the complex as a whole doesn't
enter LP2. Is there a way to make the cluster as a whole enter LP2 in
this case? Isn't that what coupled cpuidle is for?

That's a little odd. Surely the HW has pclk or it doesn't? Why use
different clocks at different times for what is apparently the same thing?
