[PATCH v2 2/2] cpuidle: Change :enter_dead() driver callback return type to void

Posted by Rafael J. Wysocki 6 days, 14 hours ago

From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>

After a previous change, cpuidle_play_dead(), which is the only caller
of idle state :enter_dead() callbacks, ignores their return values, so
they may as well be void.

v1 -> v2: New patch

Interestingly enough, the only user of :enter_dead() idle state callbacks
in the current mainline turns out to be ACPI idle.

For that matter, the only user of cpuidle_play_dead() is the
native_play_dead(). Was that always the case? 

Some of the other architectures select the deepest available idle
state at boot time, and enter that state when a CPU is offlined.

In any case I am ok with this.

At least as long ago as of 4.20.

That's fine as long as the state to use is already known at that time.
