Re: [PATCH] x86: fix idle notifier not being called in CONFIG_X86_32

I'm okay with this patch since it makes 32-bit and 64-bit consistent,
and technically, it fixes a regression.

If/when we get rid of the notifier, we should do it for both 32-and
64-bit at the same time.

It isn't clear to me that Alex's work will solve this particular
problem, or that there is a code or logical conflict -- though
maybe you are referring to some code I've not read yet.

So for this trivial patch...
Acked-by: Len Brown <len.brown@xxxxxxxxx>

But I think the bigger problem here is the expectation that out of tree
drivers will not break. The interactive governor is not upstream.
