Gautham R. Shenoy 3b185e667b cpuidle: powernv: Fix promotion from snooze if next state disabled
commit 0a4ec6aa03 upstream.

The commit 78eaa10f02 ("cpuidle: powernv/pseries: Auto-promotion of
snooze to deeper idle state") introduced a timeout for the snooze idle
state so that it could be eventually be promoted to a deeper idle
state. The snooze timeout value is static and set to the target
residency of the next idle state, which would train the cpuidle
governor to pick the next idle state eventually.

The unfortunate side-effect of this is that if the next idle state(s)
is disabled, the CPU will forever remain in snooze, despite the fact
that the system is completely idle, and other deeper idle states are
available.

This patch fixes the issue by dynamically setting the snooze timeout
to the target residency of the next enabled state on the device.

Before Patch:
  POWER8 : Only nap disabled.
  $ cpupower monitor sleep 30
  sleep took 30.01297 seconds and exited with status 0
                |Idle_Stats

  POWER9: Shallow states (stop0lite, stop1lite, stop2lite, stop0, stop1,
  stop2) disabled:

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
