Subject: [v8 PATCH 5/8]: pSeries/cpuidle: remove dedicate/shared idle loops, which will be moved to arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/processor_idle.c

From: Arun R Bharadwaj <[email-masked]>
Date: Thu, 8 Oct 2009 15:23:03 +0530

* Arun R Bharadwaj <[email-masked]> [2009-10-08 15:18:28]:

This patch removes the routines, pseries_shared_idle_sleep and
pseries_dedicated_idle_sleep, since this is implemented as a part
of arch/powerpc/platform/pseries/processor_idle.c

Also, similar to x86, call cpuidle_idle_call from cpu_idle() idle
loop instead of ppc_md.power_save.
