[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v4] ppc: make idle_timer a per-cpu variable

[Shivaprasad G Bhat]

The current code is broken for more than vcpu as
each thread would overwrite idle_timer and there were
memory leaks.

Make it part of PowerPCCPU so that every thread has a
separate one. Avoid using the timer_new_ns which is
not the preferred way to create timers.
