Looks pretty good to me and IMHO should get a CC on stable when it gets 
into the tree. One minor nit below.

We still need to clarify whether the omitted check on 
early_init_dt_scan_epapr() is on purpose and if not reintroduce it, but 
that's a separate issue.

Please move the #if scope from v to ^. That way we don't waste space / 
time / anything on systems that don't bother with the idle hcall.
