Thanks for the feedback so far, sending next version of the patchset.
Lots of simplifications and a little bit of rewording this time.
Rafael, I know you suggested to move the commit message from the
1/3 patch to the 3/3, but I feel like the change for SRF really is in
the 1/3. If you in insist, I'll do that in the v6, but I think It
serves it's purpose better like that, to justify getting rid of the old
algorithm.
Changes since v4:
* Rebased on top of Linus' tree, picking up Rafael's acpi idle patches.
* Remove mwait_play_dead() code entirely from the native_play_dead()
and delegate to idle driver right away, instead.
* ACPI: Don't filter FFH based cstates on AMD, rely on the BIOS to
report them just like the AMD prefers (IOPORT based).
* Apply Peter's suggestion to intel idle to define a default enter_dead
handler for all platforms in intel idle and allow for overwriting
that in case It is needed.
Patryk Wlazlyn (3):
x86/smp: Allow calling mwait_play_dead with an arbitrary hint
ACPI: processor_idle: Add FFH state handling
intel_idle: Provide the default enter_dead() handler
