[PATCH] intel_idle: set the state_tables array into __initdata tosave mem

From: Chuansheng Liu
Date: Thu Mar 07 2013 - 02:33:47 EST



Currently, in intel_idle.c, there are 5 state_tables array, every
array size is sizeof(struct cpuidle_state) * CPUIDLE_STATE_MAX.

But after intel_idle_probe(), just only one array is useful.

Here we can just define one static state_table, and initialize it
in intel_idle_probe(), and set other data state_tables as __initdata.

It can save about 3K, which also benefits mobile devices.
