ACPI: allow a native cpuidle driver to displace ACPI
The ACPI driver would fail probe when it found that another driver had previously registered with cpuidle. But this is a natural situation, as a native hardware cpuidle driver should be able to bind instead of ACPI, and the ACPI processor driver should be able to handle yielding control of C-states while still handling P-states and T-states. Add a KERN_DEBUG line showing when acpi_idle does successfully register. Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
