[RFC/Patch] 4xx idle loop

That should read "there's no need for the indirection..."

} There's need for the indirection for this sort of thing.  The only reason
} I created ppc_md was to allow for different machines to run off a single
} binary but not different chip families.
}
} A big #ifdef for the chip-type would work fine since the chip family is
} known at compile time.  The machine type isn't always know which is the
} reason for ppc_md.
}
} } This sounds like a good idea if we could use
} }   if( ppc_md.powersave != NULL)
} }        ppc_md.powersave();
} }
} } If it is determined that calling power_save() which is resides in an
} } arch/processor specific file then we are talking about many files being
} } hit.  and the current power_save seems to common for many other ppc
} } platforms other than 4xx & 8xx
