The flag CPUIDLE_FLAG_TIMER_STOP has been introduced in the commit 89878baa73f0f1c679355006bd8632e5d78f96c2.
The flag tells the cpuidle framework the local timer will stop in the idle state.
It is now easy to know if the cpuidle driver will use or not the broadcast timer by looking at the different states for this flag and then setup the broadcast timer consequently.
When we remove the timer initialization duplicated code in the different drivers, we have most of the drivers with the same init function. This init function is changed to be generic and moved in the ARM cpuidle driver and used from the drivers. That cleanups code and removes a lot of annoying duplicated code.
There is still some modification in OMAP4, tegra2, tegra3 and imx, especially around the coupled idle states, but we are more and more closer to a common squeleton for all the ARM drivers.
