cpuidle: psci: Do not suspend topology CPUs on PREEMPT_RT
The runtime Power Management of CPU topology is not compatible with
PREEMPT_RT:
1. Core cpuidle path disables IRQs.
2. Core cpuidle calls cpuidle-psci.
3. cpuidle-psci in __psci_enter_domain_idle_state() calls
pm_runtime_put_sync_suspend() and pm_runtime_get_sync() which use
spinlocks (which are sleeping on PREEMPT_RT).
Deep sleep modes are not a priority of Realtime kernels because the
latencies might become unpredictable. On the other hand the PSCI CPU
idle power domain is a parent of other devices and power domain
controllers, thus it cannot be simply skipped (e.g. on Qualcomm SM8250).
Disable the idle callbacks in cpuidle-psci and mark the domain as
always on. This is a trade-off between making PREEMPT_RT working and
still having a proper power domain hierarchy in the system.
