Do we need that ppc_md hook ? Since we are going to use idle states in
the CPU unplug loop, I would think we should do the necessary
initializations at boot time regardless of whether the cpuidle driver
is loaded or not, so we probably don't need this, or am I missing
something ?

This is in the wrong place. In fact, it should probably be power8 and
not power7 and it should be somewhere in powernv, not in generic code.
We don't need the ppc_md. hook, we can just check if the workaround
is needed from the ppc_md code.

That patch is ugly because of moving the above. You should instead
change the previous patch to put pnv_probe_idle_states above the above
two functions so that this patch has a lot less impact and is more
reviewable.

Fix the previous one to use __be ? IE. Previous patch is endian broken
and this one fixes it. Don't do that.

That can be done from probe_idle_states no ?
That locking construct and counter per-core (not per-CPU really) should
probably be documented somewhere and to be safe we should probably
initialize the secondary threads counters to some crazy value like -1
and BUG_ON on it in the use case.

Make two separate functions, one for enter and one to exit. IE.
pnv_enter_sleep_workaround();
vs.
pnv_exit_sleep_workaround();

Just pnv_sleep() and you can remove the __ in power7_sleep

Just export pnv_sleep() and call it from the pnv cpuidle driver
directly.
