Hi Greg,
I've added upstream commit id's to each commit comment in this series.
If that is enough to make -stable happy, then we're done.
If you would rather not pull this series because it
does not exclude the intermediate syntax patches that
are upstream, then I understand that viewpoint too.
thanks,

A run-time test to invoke leave_mm() for the deepest

C-states already have flags with CPUIDLE_FLAG_TLB_FLUSHED set.

intel_idle: Voluntary leave_mm before entering deeper
upstream: 6110a1f43c27b516e16d5ce8860fca50748c2a87
Avoid TLB flush IPIs for the cores in deeper c-states by voluntary leave_mm()
before entering into that state. CPUs tend to flush TLB in those c-states
anyways.
acpi_idle does this with C3-type states, but it was not caried over
when intel_idle was introduced. intel_idle can apply it
to C-states in addition to those that ACPI might export as C3...

cpuidle: extend cpuidle and menu governor to handle dynamic states
upstream: 71abbbf856a0e70ca478782505c800891260ba84
On some SoC chips, HW resources may be in use during any particular idle
period. As a consequence, the cpuidle states that the SoC is safe to
enter can change from idle period to idle period. In addition, the
latency and threshold of each cpuidle state can vary, depending on the
operating condition when the CPU becomes idle, e.g. the current cpu
frequency, the current state of the HW blocks, etc.
cpuidle core and the menu governor, in the current form, are geared
towards cpuidle states that are static, i.e. the availabiltiy of the
states, their latencies, their thresholds are non-changing during run
time. cpuidle does not provide any hook that cpuidle drivers can use to
adjust those values on the fly for the current idle period before the menu
governor selects the target cpuidle state.
This patch extends cpuidle core and the menu governor to handle states
that are dynamic. There are three additions in the patch and the patch
maintains backwards-compatibility with existing cpuidle drivers.
1) add prepare() to struct cpuidle_device. A cpuidle driver can hook
into the callback and cpuidle will call prepare() before calling the
governor's select function. The callback gives the cpuidle driver a
chance to update the dynamic information of the cpuidle states for the
current idle period, e.g. state availability, latencies, thresholds,
power values, etc.
2) add CPUIDLE_FLAG_IGNORE as one of the state flags. In the prepare()
function, a cpuidle driver can set/clear the flag to indicate to the
menu governor whether a cpuidle state should be ignored, i.e. not
available, during the current idle period.
3) add power_specified bit to struct cpuidle_device. The menu governor
currently assumes that the cpuidle states are arranged in the order of
increasing latency, threshold, and power savings. This is true or can
be made true for static states. Once the state parameters are dynamic,
the latencies, thresholds, and power savings for the cpuidle states can
increase or decrease by different amounts from idle period to idle
period. So the assumption of increasing latency, threshold, and power
savings from Cn to C(n+1) can no longer be guaranteed.
It can be straightforward to calculate the power consumption of each
available state and to specify it in power_usage for the idle period.
Using the power_usage fields, the menu governor then selects the state
that has the lowest power consumption and that still satisfies all other
critieria. The power_specified bit defaults to 0. For existing cpuidle
drivers, cpuidle detects that power_specified is 0 and fills in a dummy
set of power_usage values.

intel_idle: delete power_policy modparam, and choose substate functions
upstream: 0394c6676e3fa48587fbe4821390d3264672c530
The idea behind power policy was that it would start off as a modparam,
and then hook into the new "global" in-kernel power vs energy tunable.
But that tunable isn't happening, so delete the hook here.
With the policy hook gone, the sub-state choice functions
do not do anything useful, so delete them from the critical path.
To handle sub-states in the future, we will advertise them
with dedicated cpuidle_state entries. That is necessary
because some of the sub-states will have substantially different
properties than their peer sub-states.
