The trace event cpu_idle provides insufficient information for debugging
PSCI requests due to lacking access to determined PSCI domain idle
states. The cpu_idle usually only shows -1, 0, or 1 regardless how many
idle states the power domain has.
Add new trace events namely psci_domain_idle_enter and
psci_domain_idle_exit to trace enter and exit events with a determined
idle state.
These new trace events will help developers debug CPUidle issues on ARM
systems using PSCI by providing more detailed information about the
requested idle states.

I think it's fine not to track ret here. __psci_enter_domain_idle_state does not seems to care the return value of psci_cpu_suspend_enter to me because it just proceeds with executing subsequent functions regardless of ret, and returns ret to the higher function. If the value should be traced, it should probably be done in a lower layer or a higher layer. Another small small reason I'm not interested in adding ret to the trace_psci_domain_idle_exit's arguments is that trace_psci_domain_idle_(enter|exit) currently share the same trace event (i.e. same set of arguments) and it makes the trace events simple.

I might not fully understand your comments. Do you mean that even mentioning cpu_idle in the commit message does not feel right to you, or utilizing cpu_idle by exposing the determined state instead of adding new trace events is the right direction?

Showing the index sounds like a good idea, although it should be done in a different layer (probably in the GenPD governor or cpuidle-psci driver?) because idx here should be the different index from the one we're looking for. I will keep my patch as it is just for now. Thank you for the idea!
