[PATCH] cpuidle_set accepts alpha numeric values for idle-set operation

[Brahadambal Srinivasan <latha@linux.vnet.ibm.com>]

For both the d and e options in cpuidle_set, an atoi() conversion is
done without checking if the input argument is all numeric. So, an
atoi conversion is done on any character provided as input and the
CPU idle_set operation continues with that integer value, which may
not be what is intended or entirely correct.

A similar check is present for cpufreq-set already.

This patch adds a check to see that the idle_set value is all numeric
before doing a string-to-int conversion.
