arm64: kernel: remove ARM64_CPU_SUSPEND config option
ARM64_CPU_SUSPEND config option was introduced to make code providing context save/restore selectable only on platforms requiring power management capabilities. Currently ARM64_CPU_SUSPEND depends on the PM_SLEEP config option which in turn is set by the SUSPEND config option. The introduction of CPU_IDLE for arm64 requires that code configured by ARM64_CPU_SUSPEND (context save/restore) should be compiled in in order to enable the CPU idle driver to rely on CPU operations carrying out context save/restore. The ARM64_CPUIDLE config option (ARM64 generic idle driver) is therefore forced to select ARM64_CPU_SUSPEND, even if there may be (ie PM_SLEEP) failed dependencies, which is not a clean way of handling the kernel configuration option. For these reasons, this patch removes the ARM64_CPU_SUSPEND config option and makes the context save/restore dependent on CPU_PM, which is selected whenever either SUSPEND or CPU_IDLE are configured, cleaning up de...
