ACPI: Fix acpi_processor_idle and idle= boot parameters interaction
acpi_processor_idle and "idle=" boot parameter interaction is broken.
The problem is that, at boot time acpi driver is checking for "idle=" boot
option and not registering the acpi idle handler. But, when there is a CST
changed callback (typically when switching AC <-> battery or suspend-resume)
there are no checks for boot_option_idle_override and acpi idle handler tries
to get installed with nasty side effects.
With CPU_IDLE configured this issue causes results in a nasty oops on CST
change callback and without CPU_IDLE there is no oops, but boot option
of "idle=" gets ignored and acpi idle handler gets installed.
Change the behavior to not do anything in acpi idle handler when there is a
"idle=" boot option.
Note that the problem is only there when "idle=" boot option is used.
