Subject[RFT][PATCH v2 1/3] cpuidle: teo: Do not call tick_nohz_get_sleep_length() upfront
Date
From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>

Because the cost of calling tick_nohz_get_sleep_length() may increase
in the future, reorder the code in teo_select() so it first uses the
statistics to pick up a candidate idle state and applies the utilization
heuristic to it and only then calls tick_nohz_get_sleep_length() to
obtain the sleep length value and refine the selection if necessary.

This change by itself does not cause tick_nohz_get_sleep_length() to
be called less often, but it prepares the code for subsequent changes
that will do so.

Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>

v1 -> v2:
* Fix up the "2 states and utilized CPU" special case handling, so it
allows the tick to be stopped in all of the cases when the target
residency of state 1 is above TICK_NSEC.
* Fix up a stale comment.
