[PATCH 0/4] Disable Mwait for CPU C-states and add the boot option of "idle=nomwait" ,"idle=halt"

[Zhao Yakui <yakui.zhao@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi, all,
    This following patch series is to disable mwait for CPU C-states and add the boot option
of "idle=nomwait", "idle=halt"
    Patch 01:
	Disable the C2C3_FFH access mode if MWAIT is unsupported
    Patch 02:
	Add the boot option of "idle=halt". If the option of "idle=halt" is added,
Halt will be used for CPU idle. In such case CPU C-state won't be used again for CPU idle.
    Patch 03: 
       Add boot option of "idle=nomwait" to disable mwait for CPU
C-states. If the option of "idle=nomwait" is added, OSPM won't
use mwait for CPU C-states. 
    Patch 04:
       Add DMI check to disable mwait for CPU C-states. For the bogus
BIOS the mwait will automatically be disabled for CPU C-states.
    
    Thanks for the review.
   
Yakui
