If you ask me, the coupling is already there, only that it's hidden by
taking assumptions about the WFI state in the code.

However, I certainly agree with you, that this isn't very nice.

In my opinion, no it doesn't.

To me, it seems a kind of silly (and in-efficient) to do an OF parsing
that has already been done and given the information we need.

Yes, I need this for additional changes on top.

Note that, patch4 also provides the opportunity to do a similar
cleanup of the initialization code in drivers/soc/qcom/spm.c. I
haven't made that part of this series though.

I guess in the end, we need to accept that part of the psci driver is
really a cpuidle driver. Trying to keep them entirely separate,
doesn't come without complexity/churns.

While working on psci changes in the recent series I have posted, I
was even considering adding a completely new cpuidle driver for psci
(in drivers/cpuidle/*) and instead define a number of psci interface
functions, which that driver could call. That would probably be a
better split, but requires quite some changes.

So, what do you want me to do with this?

Thanks a lot for reviewing!

Kind regards
