SubjectRe: Performance issue since 3.2.6
From
Hello,

This performance penalty is still present in kernel 3.9.2. And
CONFIG_PM cannot be deactivated anymore.

I was able to make a working 3.9.2 (meaning with no penalty) with
following config and patch :
CONFIG_PM=y
CONFIG_PM_SLEEP=y
CONFIG_PM_SLEEP_SMP=y
CONFIG_CPU_IDLE=y
CONFIG_ACPI=y
CONFIG_ACPI_PROCESSOR=y

Patch : https://gist.github.com/odoucet/5600630

I know this patch is not perfect because it is just equivalent to
rollback commit f51d67a64f32cd81ea8b67ca964fb7cf7e783b2e ;

I really want this to be fixed in kernel, so I would be glad to test
any patch / config file you want.
