Earlier, this was done by setting ppc_md.power_save = NULL and hence HMT_low() and HMT_very_low() was called. Now this is defined under default_idle() and hence by setting boot_option_idle_override = 1, the cpuidle registration stuff does not happen and hence default_idle is chosen in cpuidle_idle_call.
