Yes, I think so because the state zero won't be never selected on x86
but on the other arch it will. So before this patch, on the other archs,
the state 0 was never reflected as it should do.

This is resulting from the CPUIDLE_DRIVER_STATE_START macro (I hope I
can kill this macro in a couple of patchset after this one).
