Currently cpuidle drivers are spread across different archs.
As a result, there are several different paths for cpuidle patch
submissions: cpuidle core changes go through linux-pm, ARM driver
changes go to the arm-soc or SoC-specific trees, sh changes go
through the sh arch tree, pseries changes go through the PowerPC tree
and finally intel changes go through the Len's tree while ACPI idle
changes go through linux-pm.
That makes it difficult to consolidate code and to propagate
modifications from the cpuidle core to the different drivers.
Hopefully, a movement has started to put the majority of cpuidle
drivers under drivers/cpuidle like cpuidle-calxeda.c and
cpuidle-kirkwood.c.
Add a maintainer entry for cpuidle to MAINTAINERS to clarify the
situation and to indicate to new cpuidle driver authors that those
drivers should not go into arch-specific directories.
The upstreaming process is unchanged: Rafael takes patches for
merging into his tree, but with an Acked-by: tag from the driver's
maintainer, so indicate in the drivers' headers who maintains them.
The arrangement will be the same as for cpufreq.

The en_core_tk_irqen flag is set in all the cpuidle driver which
means it is not necessary to specify this flag.
Remove the flag and the code related to it.

Convert all uses of devm_request_and_ioremap() to the newly introduced
devm_ioremap_resource() which provides more consistent error handling.
devm_ioremap_resource() provides its own error messages so all explicit
error messages can be removed from the failure code paths.

Move the Kirkwood cpuidle driver out of arch/arm/mach-kirkwood and
into drivers/cpuidle. Convert the driver into a platform driver.
