commit 59348401eb ("platform/x86: amd-pmc: Add special handling for
timer based S0i3 wakeup") adds support for using another platform timer
in lieu of the RTC which doesn't work properly on some systems. This path
was validated and worked well before submission. During the 5.16-rc1 merge
window other patches were merged that caused this to stop working properly.
When this feature was used with 5.16-rc1 or later some OEM laptops with the
matching firmware requirements from that commit would shutdown instead of
program a timer based wakeup.
This was bisected to commit 8d89835b04 ("PM: suspend: Do not pause
cpuidle in the suspend-to-idle path"). This wasn't supposed to cause any
negative impacts and also tested well on both Intel and ARM platforms.
However this changed the semantics of when CPUs are allowed to be in the
deepest state. For the AMD systems in question it appears this causes a
firmware crash for timer based wakeup.
It's hypothesized to be caused by the `amd-pmc` driver sending `OS_HINT`
and all the CPUs going into a deep state while the timer is still being
programmed. It's likely a firmware bug, but to avoid it don't allow setting
CPUs into the deepest state while using CZN timer wakeup path.
If later it's discovered that this also occurs from "regular" suspends
without a timer as well or on other silicon, this may be later expanded to
run in the suspend path for more scenarios.
