x86: Fix CPUIDLE_FLAG_IRQ_ENABLE leaking timer reprogram

[ Upstream commit edc8fc01f608108b0b7580cb2c29dfb5135e5f0e ]

intel_idle_irq() re-enables IRQs very early. As a result, an interrupt
may fire before mwait() is eventually called. If such an interrupt queues
a timer, it may go unnoticed until mwait returns and the idle loop
handles the tick re-evaluation. And monitoring TIF_NEED_RESCHED doesn't
help because a local timer enqueue doesn't set that flag.

The issue is mitigated by the fact that this idle handler is only invoked
for shallow C-states when, presumably, the next tick is supposed to be
close enough. There may still be rare cases though when the next tick
is far away and the selected C-state is shallow, resulting in a timer
getting ignored for a while.

Fix this with using sti_mwait() whose IRQ-reenablement only triggers
upon calling mwait(), dealing with the race while keeping the interrupt
latency within acceptable bounds.

intel_idle: Add a "Long HLT" C1 state for the VM guest mode

intel_idle will, for the bare metal case, usually have one or more deep
power states that have the CPUIDLE_FLAG_TLB_FLUSHED flag set. When
a state with this flag is selected by the cpuidle framework, it will also
flush the TLBs as part of entering this state. The benefit of doing this is
that the kernel does not need to wake the cpu out of this deep power state
just to flush the TLBs... for which the latency can be very high due to
the exit latency of deep power states.

In a VM guest currently, this benefit of avoiding the wakeup does not exist,
while the problem (long exit latency) is even more severe. Linux will need
to wake up a vCPU (causing the host to either come out of a deep C state,
or the VMM to have to deschedule something else to schedule the vCPU) which
can take a very long time.. adding a lot of latency to tlb flush operations
(including munmap and others).

To solve this, add a "Long HLT" C state to the state table for the VM guest
case that has the CPUIDLE_FLAG_TLB_FLUSHED flag set. The result of that is
that for long idle periods (where the VMM is likely to do things that cause
large latency) the cpuidle framework will flush the TLBs (and avoid the
wakeups), while for short/quick idle durations, the existing behavior is
retained.

Now, there is still only "hlt" available in the guest, but for long idle,
the host can go to a deeper state (say C6). There is a reasonable debate
one can have to what to set for the exit_latency and break even point for
this "Long HLT" state. The good news is that intel_idle has these values
available for the underlying CPU (even when mwait is not exposed). The
solution thus is to just use the latency and break even of the deepest state
from the bare metal CPU. This is under the assumption that this is a pretty
reasonable estimate of what the VMM would do to cause latency.

intel_idle: Add support for using intel_idle in a VM guest using just hlt

In a typical VM guest, the mwait instruction is not available, leaving
only the 'hlt' instruction (which causes a VMEXIT to the host).

So for this common case, intel_idle will detect the lack of mwait, and
fail to initialize (after which another idle method would step in which
will just use hlt always).

Other (non-common) cases exist; the table below shows the before/after
for these:

+------------+--------------------------+-------------------------+
| Hypervisor | Idle method before patch | Idle method after patch |
| exposes | | |
+============+==========================+=========================+
| nothing | default_idle fallback | intel_idle VM table |
| (common) | (straight "hlt") | |
+------------+--------------------------+-------------------------+
| mwait | intel_idle mwait table | intel_idle mwait table |
+------------+--------------------------+-------------------------+
| ACPI | ACPI C1 state ("hlt") | intel_idle VM table |
+------------+--------------------------+-------------------------+

This is only applicable to CPUs known by intel_idle. For the bare metal
case, unknown CPU models will use the ACPI tables (when available) to
get estimates for latency and break even point for longer idle states.
In guests, the common case is that ACPI tables are not available, but
even when they are available, they can't and don't provide the latency
information for the longer (mwait based) states. For this scenario
(unknown CPU model), the default_idle mode (no ACPI) or ACPI C1 (ACPI
avaible) will be used.

By providing capability to do this with the intel_idle driver, we can
do better than the fallback or ACPI table methods. While this current
change only gets us to the existing behavior, later patches in this
series will add new capabilities such as optimized TLB flushing.

In order to do this, a simplified version of the initialization
function for VM guests is created, and this will be called if the CPU
is recognized, but mwait is not supported, and we're in a VM guest.

One thing to note is that the max latency (and break even) of this C1
state is higher than the typical bare metal C1 state. Because hlt causes
a vmexit, and the cost of vmexit + hypervisor overhead + vmenter is
typically in the order of upto 5 microseconds... even if the hypervisor
does not actually goes into a hardware power saving state.

The former is the "proper" way of doing it, it is per-C-state and
per-platform. The latter is for debugging purposes only.

The problem is that intel_idle prints the "forced intel_idle_irq"

intel_idle: Add AlderLake-N support

Similar to the other other AlderLake platforms, the C1 and C1E states on
ADL-N are mutually exclusive. Only one of them can be enabled at a time.

C1E is preferred on ADL-N for better energy efficiency.

C6S is also supported on this platform. Its latency is far bigger than
C6, but really close to C8 (PC8), thus it is not exposed as a separate
state.

intel_idle: make SPR C1 and C1E be independent

This patch partially reverts the changes made by the following commit:

da0e58c038e6 intel_idle: add 'preferred_cstates' module argument

As that commit describes, on early Sapphire Rapids Xeon platforms the C1 and
C1E states were mutually exclusive, so that users could only have either C1 and
C6, or C1E and C6.

However, Intel firmware engineers managed to remove this limitation and make C1
and C1E to be completely independent, just like on previous Xeon platforms.

Therefore, this patch:
* Removes commentary describing the old, and now non-existing SPR C1E
limitation.
* Marks SPR C1E as available by default.
* Removes the 'preferred_cstates' parameter handling for SPR. Both C1 and
C1E will be available regardless of 'preferred_cstates' value.

We expect that all SPR systems are shipping with new firmware, which includes
the C1/C1E improvement.

intel_idle: Fix false positive RCU splats due to incorrect hardirqs state

Commit 32d4fd5751ea ("cpuidle,intel_idle: Fix CPUIDLE_FLAG_IRQ_ENABLE")

intel_idle: Fix false positive RCU splats due to incorrect hardirqs state

Commit 32d4fd5751ea ("cpuidle,intel_idle: Fix CPUIDLE_FLAG_IRQ_ENABLE")
uses raw_local_irq_enable/local_irq_disable() around call to
__intel_idle() in intel_idle_irq().

With interrupt enabled, timer tick interrupt can happen and a
subsequently call to __do_softirq() may change the lockdep hardirqs state
of a debug kernel back to 'on'. This will result in a mismatch between
the cpu hardirqs state (off) and the lockdep hardirqs state (on) causing
a number of false positive "WARNING: suspicious RCU usage" splats.

Fix that by using local_irq_disable() to disable interrupt in
intel_idle_irq().
