drivers: cpuidle: Add idle-state-name description to ARM idle states
On ARM machines, where generally speaking the idle state numbering has no fixed and standard meaning it is useful to provide a description of the idle state inner workings for benchmarking and monitoring purposes. This patch adds a property to the idle states bindings that if present gives platform firmware a means of describing the idle state and export the string description to user space. The patch updates the DT parsing code accordingly to take the description, if present, into consideration.
