FFH need not mean MWAIT in principle.
FFH in _CST means MWAIT in practice because _CST is used on x86 which implements FFH through MWAIT, but it would be good at least to put a comment here to explain that this code is only expected to run on x86.
Or better still, add something like acpi_arch_idle_state_flags(u8 entry_method) that will return CPUIDLE_FLAG_MWAIT for ACPI_CSTATE_FFH and 0 otherwise and then do
state->flags |= acpi_arch_idle_state_flags(cx->entry_method);
