Keep the > ARM_CPUIDLE_WFI_STATE but disable the "Deep Idle" state. Actually you don't have to modify the kernel you can setup the CPU idle level you want at runtime: echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpuidle/state1/disable will disable the state1. By doing this on Armada 370 then you will only use the WFI state. Do you still have this issue on v4.0-rc7?
