[PATCH 09/13] powerpc/64s: cpuidle set polling before enabling irqs

From: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com>
Date: 2017-06-13 13:06:42
Subsystem: cpu idle time management framework, the rest · Maintainers: "Rafael J. Wysocki", Daniel Lezcano, Linus Torvalds

local_irq_enable can cause interrupts to be taken which could
take significant amount of processing time. The idle process
should set its polling flag before this, so another process that
wakes it during this time will not have to send an IPI.

Expand the TIF_POLLING_NRFLAG coverage to as large as possible.
