Currently we allow the cpuidle driver registration to succeed, even if we failed to enable the OSI mode when the hierarchical DT layout is used. This means running in a degraded mode, by using the available idle states per CPU, while also preventing the domain idle states. Moving forward, this behaviour looks quite questionable to maintain, as complexity seems to grow around it, especially when trying to add support for deferred probe, for example. Therefore, let's make the cpuidle driver registration to fail in this situation, thus relying on the default architectural cpuidle backend for WFI to be used.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
