SubjectRe: [PATCH 15/36] cpuidle,cpu_pm: Remove RCU fiddling from cpu_pm_{enter,exit}()

IIUC with that true we should be able to drop the RCU_NONIDLE() from
drivers/perf/arm_pmu.c, as we only needed that for an invocation via a pm
notifier.

I should be able to give that a spin on some hardware.

To make this easier to debug, is it worth adding an assertion that RCU is
watching here? e.g.

RCU_LOCKDEP_WARN(!rcu_is_watching(),
"cpu_pm_notify() used illegally from EQS");

... and likewise here?

Thanks,
