Patch 4 applies on top of patch 3, but neither of these applies on top of patch 2. Can you guys sort these out into one big "fix idle calling" patch that includes a runtime parameter to control idle calling, which overrides a default selected either by CONFIG_APM_CPU_IDLE or by a bit of code that checks for CPU stoppage? Or has someone already done this?
