Current PSCI code handles idle state entry through the psci_cpu_suspend_enter() API, that takes an idle state index as a parameter and convert the index into a previously initialized power_state parameter before calling the PSCI.CPU_SUSPEND() with it. This is unwieldly, since it forces the PSCI firmware layer to keep track of power_state parameter for every idle state so that the index->power_state conversion can be made in the PSCI firmware layer instead of the CPUidle driver implementations. Move the power_state handling out of drivers/firmware/psci into the respective ACPI/DT PSCI CPUidle backends and convert the psci_cpu_suspend_enter() API to get the power_state parameter as input, which makes it closer to its firmware interface PSCI.CPU_SUSPEND() API. A notable side effect is that the PSCI ACPI/DT CPUidle backends now can directly handle (and if needed update) power_state parameters before handing them over to the PSCI firmware interface to trigger PSCI.CPU_SUSPEND() calls.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
