In the current code, the check to reflect or not the outcoming state is done
against the idle state which has been chosen and its value.

Instead of doing a check in each of the reflect functions, just don't call reflect
if something went wrong in the idle path.

Before this patch, last_state_idx was never set to 0 here.
After this patch, last_state_idx will be set to 0 when entered_state is 0.
Is that okay?

thanks,

Why is the last_state_idx not getting updated ?

Oups, right. This is missing.

Thanks for pointing this out.

By the way, I don't think a back end driver is changing the selected 
state currently and I am not sure this is desirable since we want to 
trust the state we are going (as a best effort). So if the 'enter' 
function does not change the index, that means the last_state_idx has 
not to be changed since it has been assigned in the 'select' function.

Yes, I think so because the state zero won't be never selected on x86 
but on the other arch it will. So before this patch, on the other archs, 
the state 0 was never reflected as it should do.

This is resulting from the CPUIDLE_DRIVER_STATE_START macro (I hope I 
can kill this macro in a couple of patchset after this one).

Hmm Right. So you might want to remove the last_state_idx update in
ladder_reflect() also?

FYI, the OMAP3 backend driver can does not always obey the selected
state, and will return a different state than the one requested.

The ACPI driver can do that as well.
