Put tick_freeze() under RCU_NONIDLE() to prevent RCU from complaining
about suspicious RCU usage in idle by trace_suspend_resume() called
from there.

While at it, fix a comment related to another usage of RCU_NONIDLE()
in enter_freeze_proper().

Pull module_platform_driver replacement from Paul Gortmaker:
 "Replace module_platform_driver with builtin_platform driver in non
  modules.

  We see an increasing number of non-modular drivers using
  modular_driver() type register functions.  There are several downsides
  to letting this continue unchecked:

   - The code can appear modular to a reader of the code, and they won't
     know if the code really is modular without checking the Makefile
     and Kconfig to see if compilation is governed by a bool or
     tristate.

   - Coders of drivers may be tempted to code up an __exit function that
     is never used, just in order to satisfy the required three args of
     the modular registration function.

   - Non-modular code ends up including the &lt;module.h&gt; which increases
     CPP overhead that they don't need.

   - It hinders us from performing better separation of the module init
     code and the generic init code.

  So here we introduce similar macros for builtin drivers.  Then we
  convert builtin drivers (controlled by a bool Kconfig) by making the
  following type of mapping:

    module_platform_driver()       ---&gt;  builtin_platform_driver()
    module_platform_driver_probe() ---&gt;  builtin_platform_driver_probe().

  The set of drivers that are converted here are just the ones that
  showed up as relying on an implicit include of &lt;module.h&gt; during a
  pending header cleanup.  So we convert them here vs adding an include
  of &lt;module.h&gt; to non-modular code to avoid compile fails.  Additonal
  conversions can be done asynchronously at any time.

  Once again, an unused module_exit function that is removed here
  appears in the diffstat as an outlier wrt all the other changes"

     should be static inline (Borislav Petkov)

   - Change names of helper function converting struct fwnode_handle

     pointers so they don't conflict with local variable names
     (Alexander Sverdlin)

   - Make the hibernate core re-enable nonboot CPUs on failures to
     disable them as expected (Vitaly Kuznetsov)

   - Increase the default timeout of the device suspend watchdog to
     prevent it from triggering too early on some systems (Takashi Iwai)

   - Prevent the cpuidle powernv driver from registering idle states
     with CPUIDLE_FLAG_TIMER_STOP set if CONFIG_TICK_ONESHOT is unset

On some archs, the local clockevent device stops in deep cpuidle states.
The broadcast framework is used to wakeup cpus in these idle states, in
which either an external clockevent device is used to send wakeup ipis
or the hrtimer broadcast framework kicks in in the absence of such a
device. One cpu is nominated as the broadcast cpu and this cpu sends
wakeup ipis to sleeping cpus at the appropriate time. This is the
implementation in the oneshot mode of broadcast.

In periodic mode of broadcast however, the presence of such cpuidle
states results in the cpuidle driver calling tick_broadcast_enable()
which shuts down the local clockevent devices of all the cpus and
appoints the tick broadcast device as the clockevent device for each of
them. This works on those archs where the tick broadcast device is a
real clockevent device.  But on archs which depend on the hrtimer mode
of broadcast, the tick broadcast device hapens to be a pseudo device.
The consequence is that the local clockevent devices of all cpus are
shutdown and the kernel hangs at boot time in periodic mode.

Let us thus not register the cpuidle states which have
CPUIDLE_FLAG_TIMER_STOP flag set, on archs which depend on the hrtimer
mode of broadcast in periodic mode. This patch takes care of doing this
on powerpc. The cpus would not have entered into such deep cpuidle
states in periodic mode on powerpc anyway. So there is no loss here.

The idle cpus which stay in snooze for a long period can degrade the
perfomance of the sibling cpus. If the cpu stays in snooze for more
than target residency of the next available idle state, then exit from
snooze. This gives a chance to the cpuidle governor to re-evaluate the
last idle state of the cpu to promote it to deeper idle states.

<title>drivers/cpuidle: Convert non-modular drivers to use builtin_platform_driver</title>

All these drivers are configured with Kconfig options that are
declared as bool.  Hence it is not possible for the code
to be built as modular.  However the code is currently using the
module_platform_driver() macro for driver registration.

While this currently works, we really don't want to be including
the module.h header in non-modular code, which we'll be forced
to do, pending some upcoming code relocation from init.h into
module.h.  So we fix it now by using the non-modular equivalent.
