Commit
7a8c994cbb2d ("ACPI: processor: idle: Optimize ACPI idle
driver registration") moved the ACPI idle driver registration to
acpi_processor_driver_init(), but it didn't check whether a cpuidle
driver was already registered.
For example, on Intel platforms, if the intel_idle driver is already
loaded, the code would still evaluate the _CST object in the ACPI
table and attempt to register the acpi_idle driver. This registration
would fail with -EBUSY due to the existing check in cpuidle_register_driver.
Add a check at the beginning of acpi_processor_register_idle_driver()
to avoid unnecessary _CST evaluate and potential registration failures.
