<content type='text'>
Implement call_cpuidle_s2idle() in analogy with call_cpuidle()
for the s2idle-specific idle state entry and invoke it from
cpuidle_idle_call() to make the s2idle-specific idle entry code
path look more similar to the "regular" idle entry one.

No intentional functional impact.

<content type='text'>
The recent commit: 90b5363acd47 ("sched: Clean up scheduler_ipi()")
got smp_call_function_single_async() subtly wrong. Even though it will
return -EBUSY when trying to re-use a csd, that condition is not
atomic and still requires external serialization.

The change in ttwu_queue_remote() got this wrong.

While on first reading ttwu_queue_remote() has an atomic test-and-set
that appears to serialize the use, the matching 'release' is not in
the right place to actually guarantee this serialization.

The actual race is vs the sched_ttwu_pending() call in the idle loop;
that can run the wakeup-list without consuming the CSD.

Instead of trying to chain the lists, merge them.

Just like the ttwu_queue_remote() IPI, make use of _TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG
to avoid sending IPIs to idle CPUs.

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "These include cpuidle changes to use nanoseconds (instead of
  microseconds) as the unit of time and to simplify checks for disabled
  idle states in the idle loop, some cpuidle fixes and governor updates,
  assorted cpufreq updates (driver updates mostly and a few core fixes
  and cleanups), devfreq updates (dominated by the tegra30 driver
  changes), new CPU IDs for the RAPL power capping driver, relatively
  minor updates of the generic power domains (genpd) and operation
  performance points (OPP) frameworks, and assorted fixes and cleanups.

  There are also two maintainer information updates: Chanwoo Choi will
  be maintaining the devfreq subsystem going forward and Todd Brandt is
  going to maintain the pm-graph utility (created by him).

  Specifics:

   - Use nanoseconds (instead of microseconds) as the unit of time in
     the cpuidle core and simplify checks for disabled idle states in
     the idle loop (Rafael Wysocki)

   - Fix and clean up the teo cpuidle governor (Rafael Wysocki)

   - Fix the cpuidle registration error code path (Zhenzhong Duan)

   - Avoid excessive vmexits in the ACPI cpuidle driver (Yin Fengwei)

   - Fix cpufreq driver registration and clarify a comment in the
     cpufreq core (Viresh Kumar)

   - Add NULL checks to the show() and store() methods of sysfs

        between devfreq_update_status() and trans_stat_show() (Leonard
        Crestez)

Modify cpuidle_use_deepest_state() to take an additional exit latency
limit argument to be passed to find_deepest_idle_state() and make
cpuidle_idle_call() pass dev-&gt;forced_idle_latency_limit_ns to it for
forced idle.

<id>urn:sha1:c55b51a06b01d67a99457bb82a8c31081c7faa23</id>
<content type='text'>
In some cases it may be useful to specify an exit latency limit for
the idle state to be used during CPU idle time injection.

Instead of duplicating the information in struct cpuidle_device
or propagating the latency limit in the call stack, replace the
use_deepest_state field with forced_latency_limit_ns to represent
that limit, so that the deepest idle state with exit latency within
that limit is forced (i.e. no governors) when it is set.

A zero exit latency limit for forced idle means to use governors in
the usual way (analogous to use_deepest_state equal to "false" before
this change).

Additionally, add play_idle_precise() taking two arguments, the
duration of forced idle and the idle state exit latency limit, both
in nanoseconds, and redefine play_idle() as a wrapper around that
new function.

This change is preparatory, no functional impact is expected.

<id>urn:sha1:c1d51f684c72b5eb2aecbbd47be3a2977a2dc903</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently, the cpuidle subsystem uses microseconds as the unit of
time which (among other things) causes the idle loop to incur some
integer division overhead for no clear benefit.

In order to allow cpuidle to measure time in nanoseconds, add two
new fields, exit_latency_ns and target_residency_ns, to represent the
exit latency and target residency of an idle state in nanoseconds,
respectively, to struct cpuidle_state and initialize them with the
help of the corresponding values in microseconds provided by drivers.
Additionally, change cpuidle_governor_latency_req() to return the
idle state exit latency constraint in nanoseconds.

Also meeasure idle state residency (last_residency_ns in struct
cpuidle_device and time_ns in struct cpuidle_driver) in nanoseconds
and update the cpuidle core and governors accordingly.

However, the menu governor still computes typical intervals in
microseconds to avoid integer overflows.

It turns out there really is something special to the first
set_next_task() invocation. In specific the 'change' pattern really
should not cause balance callbacks.
