[PATCH 3/3] intel_idle: set the state_tables array as __initdatato save mem

From: Chuansheng Liu
Date: Fri Mar 08 2013 - 00:56:51 EST



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

As in intel_idle_cpuidle_driver_init(), we have copied the data into
intel_idle_driver->state[], so do not need to keep state_tables[]
there any more after system init.

It will save about 3~4k memory, also benefits mobile devices.
Here changing them as __initdata, also removing global var
cpuidle_state_table pointer.
