H. Peter Anvin bc83cccc76 x86, mwait: Move mwait constants to a common header file
We have MWAIT constants spread across three different .c files, for no
good reason.  Move them all into a common header file.

Len Brown 0394c6676e intel_idle: delete power_policy modparam, and choose substate functions
The idea behind power policy was that it would start off as a modparam,
and then hook into the new "global" in-kernel power vs energy tunable.
But that tunable isn't happening, so delete the hook here.

With the policy hook gone, the sub-state choice functions
do not do anything useful, so delete them from the critical path.

To handle sub-states in the future, we will advertise them
with dedicated cpuidle_state entries.  That is necessary
because some of the sub-states will have substantially different
properties than their peer sub-states.

Len Brown 2671717265 intel_idle: native hardware cpuidle driver for latest Intel processors
This EXPERIMENTAL driver supersedes acpi_idle on
Intel Atom Processors, Intel Core i3/i5/i7 Processors
and associated Intel Xeon processors.

It does not support the Intel Core2 processor or earlier.

For kernels configured with ACPI, CONFIG_INTEL_IDLE=y
allows intel_idle to probe before the ACPI processor driver.
Booting with "intel_idle.max_cstate=0" disables intel_idle
and the system will fall back on ACPI's "acpi_idle".

Typical Linux distributions load ACPI processor module early,
making CONFIG_INTEL_IDLE=m not easily useful on ACPI platforms.

intel_idle probes all processors at module_init time.
Processors that are hot-added later will be limited
to using C1 in idle.
