Rafael J. Wysocki 75a8026741 cpuidle: Allow idle states to be disabled by default 
In certain situations it may be useful to prevent some idle states
from being used by default while allowing user space to enable them
later on.

For this purpose, introduce a new state flag, CPUIDLE_FLAG_OFF, to
mark idle states that should be disabled by default, make the core
set CPUIDLE_STATE_DISABLED_BY_USER for those states at the
initialization time and add a new state attribute in sysfs,
"default_status", to inform user space of the initial status of
the given idle state ("disabled" if CPUIDLE_FLAG_OFF is set for it,
"enabled" otherwise).

One cpu# directory is created per logical CPU in the system,
e.g. /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu42/.
Briefly, the files above are:
core_id: the CPU core ID of cpu#. Typically it is the
hardware platform's identifier (rather than the kernel's).
The actual value is architecture and platform dependent.
core_siblings: internal kernel map of cpu#'s hardware threads
within the same physical_package_id.
core_siblings_list: human-readable list of the logical CPU
numbers within the same physical_package_id as cpu#.
physical_package_id: physical package id of cpu#. Typically
corresponds to a physical socket number, but the actual value
is architecture and platform dependent.

threads within the same core as cpu#
thread_siblings_list: human-readable list of cpu#'s hardware

Description: Discover cpuidle policy and mechanism
Various CPUs today support multiple idle levels that are
differentiated by varying exit latencies and power
consumption during idle.
Idle policy (governor) is differentiated from idle mechanism
(driver)
current_driver: (RO) displays current idle mechanism
current_governor_ro: (RO) displays current idle policy
With the cpuidle_sysfs_switch boot option enabled (meant for
developer testing), the following three attributes are visible
instead:
current_driver: same as described above
available_governors: (RO) displays a space separated list of
available governors
current_governor: (RW) displays current idle policy. Users can
switch the governor at runtime by writing to this file.

the effect of the disable variable depends on the implementation
of a particular governor. In the ladder governor, for example,
it is not coherent, i.e. if one is disabling a light state, then
all deeper states are disabled as well, but the disable variable
does not reflect it. Likewise, if one enables a deep state but a
lighter state still is disabled, then this has no effect.

Description: Disable L3 cache indices
These files exist in every CPU's cache/index3 directory. Each
cache_disable_{0,1} file corresponds to one disable slot which
can be used to disable a cache index. Reading from these files
on a processor with this functionality will return the currently
disabled index for that node. There is one L3 structure per
node, or per internal node on MCM machines. Writing a valid
index to one of these files will cause the specificed cache
index to be disabled.
All AMD processors with L3 caches provide this functionality.

'cpuX/cpufreq/throttle_stats' directory contains the CPU frequency
throttle stat attributes for the chip. The throttle stats of a cpu
is common across all the cpus belonging to a chip. Below are the
throttle attributes exported in the 'throttle_stats' directory:
- turbo_stat : This file gives the total number of times the max
frequency is throttled to lower frequency in turbo (at and above
nominal frequency) range of frequencies.
- sub_turbo_stat : This file gives the total number of times the
max frequency is throttled to lower frequency in sub-turbo(below
nominal frequency) range of frequencies.
- unthrottle : This file gives the total number of times the max
frequency is unthrottled after being throttled.
- powercap : This file gives the total number of times the max
frequency is throttled due to 'Power Capping'.
- overtemp : This file gives the total number of times the max
frequency is throttled due to 'CPU Over Temperature'.
- supply_fault : This file gives the total number of times the
max frequency is throttled due to 'Power Supply Failure'.
- overcurrent : This file gives the total number of times the
max frequency is throttled due to 'Overcurrent'.
- occ_reset : This file gives the total number of times the max
frequency is throttled due to 'OCC Reset'.
The sysfs attributes representing different throttle reasons like
powercap, overtemp, supply_fault, overcurrent and occ_reset map to
the reasons provided by OCC firmware for throttling the frequency.
