Well it could be this simple. But the current code leaves a lot more
room to add different type waits or spins if need be (if they are ever
needed ... though none off the top of my head at the moment)...but it
does allow you to create another wait state for whatever reason a lot
easier.

So I really don't think this needs to change. Unless everyone really
feels that it just has to be.

The idea is to not statically initialize ppc_md.power_save to
ppc44x_idle in each platform setup file.
