* Arun R Bharadwaj <arun at linux.vnet.ibm.com> [2009-10-08 15:18:28]:

In arch/powerpc/kernel/idle.c create a default_idle() routine by moving
the failover condition of the cpu_idle() idle loop. This is needed by
cpuidle infrastructure to call default_idle when other idle routines
are not yet registered. Functionality remains the same, but the code is
slightly moved around.
