Subject: Re: [RFC PATCH V4 5/5] cpuidle: cpuidle driver for apm
Date: Fri, 25 Mar 2011 03:24:24 -0400 (EDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.LFD.2.02.1103250321480.32565@x980> (raw)

> Maybe there is some other way to handle asymmetry ??

When somebody invents a system that needs asymmetry on purpose,
that is the time to get fancy.  Until that day, simply print a
FW_BUG WARNING and fall back to default_idle().

cheers,
