cpuidle: Allow idle states to be disabled by default
In certain situations it may be useful to prevent some idle states from being used by default while allowing user space to enable them later on. For this purpose, introduce a new state flag, CPUIDLE_FLAG_OFF, to mark idle states that should be disabled by default, make the core set CPUIDLE_STATE_DISABLED_BY_USER for those states at the initialization time and add a new state attribute in sysfs, "default_status", to inform user space of the initial status of the given idle state ("disabled" if CPUIDLE_FLAG_OFF is set for it, "enabled" otherwise).
