Peter Zijlstra 08beb0d436 x86: Fix CPUIDLE_FLAG_IRQ_ENABLE leaking timer reprogram ... [ Upstream commit edc8fc01f608108b0b7580cb2c29dfb5135e5f0e ] intel_idle_irq() re-enables IRQs very early. As a result, an interrupt may fire before mwait() is eventually called. If such an interrupt queues a timer, it may go unnoticed until mwait returns and the idle loop handles the tick re-evaluation. And monitoring TIF_NEED_RESCHED doesn't help because a local timer enqueue doesn't set that flag. The issue is mitigated by the fact that this idle handler is only invoked for shallow C-states when, presumably, the next tick is supposed to be close enough. There may still be rare cases though when the next tick is far away and the selected C-state is shallow, resulting in a timer getting ignored for a while. Fix this with using sti_mwait() whose IRQ-reenablement only triggers upon calling mwait(), dealing with the race while keeping the interrupt latency within acceptable bounds.
