98d8821a47 powerpc/powernv: Move IDLE_STATE_ENTER_SEQ macro to cpuidle.h
Move IDLE_STATE_ENTER_SEQ macro to cpuidle.h so that MCE handler changes
in subsequent patch can use it.

No functionality change.

bcef83a00d powerpc/powernv: Add platform support for stop instruction
POWER ISA v3 defines a new idle processor core mechanism. In summary,
 a) new instruction named stop is added. This instruction replaces
	instructions like nap, sleep, rvwinkle.
 b) new per thread SPR named Processor Stop Status and Control Register
	(PSSCR) is added which controls the behavior of stop instruction.

PSSCR layout:
----------------------------------------------------------
| PLS | /// | SD | ESL | EC | PSLL | /// | TR | MTL | RL |
----------------------------------------------------------
0      4     41   42    43   44     48    54   56    60

PSSCR key fields:
	Bits 0:3  - Power-Saving Level Status. This field indicates the lowest
	power-saving state the thread entered since stop instruction was last
	executed.

	Bit 42 - Enable State Loss
	0 - No state is lost irrespective of other fields
	1 - Allows state loss

	Bits 44:47 - Power-Saving Level Limit
	This limits the power-saving level that can be entered into.

	Bits 60:63 - Requested Level
	Used to specify which power-saving level must be entered on executing
	stop instruction

This patch adds support for stop instruction and PSSCR handling.

7cba160ad7 powernv/cpuidle: Redesign idle states management
Deep idle states like sleep and winkle are per core idle states. A core
enters these states only when all the threads enter either the
particular idle state or a deeper one. There are tasks like fastsleep
hardware bug workaround and hypervisor core state save which have to be
done only by the last thread of the core entering deep idle state and
similarly tasks like timebase resync, hypervisor core register restore
that have to be done only by the first thread waking up from these
state.

The current idle state management does not have a way to distinguish the
first/last thread of the core waking/entering idle states. Tasks like
timebase resync are done for all the threads. This is not only is
suboptimal, but can cause functionality issues when subcores and kvm is
involved.

This patch adds the necessary infrastructure to track idle states of
threads in a per-core structure. It uses this info to perform tasks like
fastsleep workaround and timebase resync only once per core.
