[PATCH] drivers: cpuidle: Don't initialize big.LITTLE driver if MCPM is unavailable

[Daniel Lezcano]

From: Sudeep Holla <sudeep.holla@xxxxxxx>

If big.LITTLE driver is initialized even when MCPM is unavailable,
we get the below warning the first time cpu tries to enter deeper
C-states.

This patch fixes the issue by checking for the availability of MCPM
before initializing the big.LITTLE cpuidle driver
