commit 718be4aaf3613cf7c2d097f925abc3d3553c0605 upstream.

It turns out that there is a bit in the _CST for Intel FFH C3
that tells the OS if we should be checking BM_STS or not.

Linux has been unconditionally checking BM_STS.
If the chip-set is configured to enable BM_STS,
it can retard or completely prevent entry into
deep C-states -- as illustrated by turbostat:

table 4 "_CST FFH GAS Field Encoding"
Bit 1: Set to 1 if OSPM should use Bus Master avoidance for this C-state

ACPI deep C-state entry had a long standing bug/missing feature, wherein we were sending
resched IPIs when an idle CPU is in mwait based deep C-state. Only mwait based C1 was using
the write to the monitored address to wake up mwait'ing CPU.

This patch changes the code to retain TS_POLLING bit if we are entering an mwait based
deep C-state.

The patch has been verified to reduce the number of resched IPIs in general and also
improves the performance/power on workloads with low system utilization (i.e., when mwait based
deep C-states are being used).

Since the rewrite of the CPU idle governor in 2.6.32, two laptops have
surfaced where the BIOS advertises a C2 power state, but for some reason
this state is not functioning (as verified in both cases by powertop
before the patch in .32).

The old governor had the accidental behavior that if a non-working state
was chosen too many times, it would end up falling back to C1.  The new
governor works differently and this accidental behavior is no longer
there; the result is a high temperature on these two machines.

This patch adds these 2 machines to the DMI table for C state anomalies;
by just not using C2 both these machines are better off (the TSC can be
used instead of the pm timer, giving a performance boost for example).

no functional change -- cleanup only.

acpi_processor_power_verify_c2() was nearly empty due to a previous patch,
so expand its remains into its one caller and delete it.

Do for C3 what the previous patch did for C2.

The C2 patch was in response to a highly visible
and multiply reported C-state/turbo failure,
while this change has no bug report in-hand.

This will enable C3 in Linux on systems where BIOS
overstates C3 latency in _CST.  It will also enable
future systems which may actually have C3 > 1000usec.

Linux has always ignored ACPI BIOS C3 with exit latency > 1000 usec,
and the ACPI spec is clear that is correct FADT-supplied C3.

However, the ACPI spec explicitly states that _CST-supplied C-states
have no latency limits.

So move the 1000usec C3 test out of the code shared
by FADT and _CST code-paths, and into the FADT-specific path.

This bug has not been visible until Nehalem, which advertises
a CPU-C2 worst case exit latency on servers of 205usec.
That (incorrect) figure is being used by BIOS writers
on mobile Nehalem systems for the AC configuration.
Thus, Linux ignores C2 leaving just C1, which is
saves less power, and also impacts performance
by preventing the use of turbo mode.

I got following warning on ia64 box:
  In function 'acpi_processor_power_verify':

This smp_call_function_single() was introduced by a commit

The problem is that the lapic_timer_propagate_broadcast() has 2 versions:
One is real code that modified in the above commit, and the other is NOP
code that used when !ARCH_APICTIMER_STOPS_ON_C3:

  static void lapic_timer_propagate_broadcast(struct acpi_processor *pr) { }

So I got warning because of !ARCH_APICTIMER_STOPS_ON_C3.

We really want to do nothing here on !ARCH_APICTIMER_STOPS_ON_C3, so
modify lapic_timer_propagate_broadcast() of real version to use
smp_call_function_single() in it.

Commit 3d5b6fb47a8e68fa311ca2c3447e7f8a7c3a9cf3 ("ACPI: Kill overly
verbose "power state" log messages") removed the actual use of this
variable, but didn't remove the variable itself, resulting in build
warnings like

  drivers/acpi/processor_idle.c: In function ‘acpi_processor_power_init’:
  drivers/acpi/processor_idle.c:1169: warning: unused variable ‘i’

Just get rid of the now unused variable.

I was recently lucky enough to get a 64-CPU system, so my kernel log
ends up with 64 lines like:

    ACPI: CPU0 (power states: C1[C1] C2[C3])

This is pretty useless clutter because this info is already available
after boot from both /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpuidle/state?/ as
well as /proc/acpi/processor/CPU*/power.

So just delete the code that prints the C-states in processor_idle.c.
