cpuidle: Allow enforcing deepest idle state selection
When idle injection is used to cap power, we need to override the governor's choice of idle states. For this reason, make it possible the deepest idle state selection to be enforced by setting a flag on a given CPU to achieve the maximum potential power draw reduction.
