[ Upstream commit f187851b9b4a76952b1158b86434563dd2031103 ]

When failing to enter broadcast timer mode for an idle state that
requires it, a new state is selected that does not require broadcast,
but the broadcast variable remains set. This causes
tick_broadcast_exit to be called despite not having entered broadcast
mode.

This causes the WARN_ON_ONCE(!irqs_disabled()) to trigger in some
cases. It does not appear to cause problems for code today, but seems
to violate the interface so should be fixed.

Commit 0b89e9aa2856 (cpuidle: delay enabling interrupts until all
coupled CPUs leave idle) rightfully fixed a regression by letting
the coupled idle state framework to handle local interrupt enabling
when the CPU is exiting an idle state.

The current code checks if the idle state is coupled and, if so, it
will let the coupled code to enable interrupts. This way, it can
decrement the ready-count before handling the interrupt. This
mechanism prevents the other CPUs from waiting for a CPU which is
handling interrupts.

But the check is done against the state index returned by the back
end driver's ->enter functions which could be different from the
initial index passed as parameter to the cpuidle_enter_state()
function.

 entered_state = target_state->enter(dev, drv, index);

 [ ... ]

 if (!cpuidle_state_is_coupled(drv, entered_state))
	local_irq_enable();

 [ ... ]

If the 'index' is referring to a coupled idle state but the
'entered_state' is *not* coupled, then the interrupts are enabled
again. All CPUs blocked on the sync barrier may busy loop longer
if the CPU has interrupts to handle before decrementing the
ready-count. That's consuming more energy than saving.

The ktime_get() can have a non negligeable overhead, use local_clock()
instead.

In order to test the difference between ktime_get() and local_clock(),
a quick hack has been added to trigger, via debugfs, 10000 times a
call to ktime_get() and local_clock() and measure the elapsed time.

Then the average value, the min and max is computed for each call.

From userspace, the test above was called 100 times every 2 seconds.

So, ktime_get() and local_clock() have been called 1000000 times in
total.

The results are:

ktime_get():
============
 * average: 101 ns (stddev: 27.4)
 * maximum: 38313 ns
 * minimum: 65 ns

local_clock():
==============
 * average: 60 ns (stddev: 9.8)
 * maximum: 13487 ns
 * minimum: 46 ns

The local_clock() is faster and more stable.

Even if it is a drop in the ocean, changing the ktime_get() by the
local_clock() allows to save 80ns at idle time (entry + exit). And
in some circumstances, especially when there are several CPUs racing
for the clock access, we save tens of microseconds.

The idle duration resulting from a diff is converted from nanosec to
microsec. This could be done with integer division (div 1000) - which is
an expensive operation or by 10 bits shifting (div 1024) - which is fast
but unprecise.

The following table gives some results at the limits.

 ------------------------------------------
|   nsec   |   div(1000)   |   div(1024)   |
 ------------------------------------------
|   1e3    |        1 usec |      976 nsec |
 ------------------------------------------
|   1e6    |     1000 usec |      976 usec |
 ------------------------------------------
|   1e9    |  1000000 usec |   976562 usec |
 ------------------------------------------

There is a linear deviation of 2.34%. This loss of precision is acceptable
in the context of the resulting diff which is used for statistics. These
ones are processed to guess estimate an approximation of the duration of the
next idle period which ends up into an idle state selection. The selection
criteria takes into account the next duration based on large intervals,
represented by the idle state's target residency.

The 2^10 division is enough because the approximation regarding the 1e3
