Subject[PATCH 2/3] powernv:idle: Decouple TB restore & Per-core SPRs restore
Date
From: "Gautham R. Shenoy" <ego@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

The idle-exit code assumes that if Timebase is not lost, then neither
are the per-core hypervisor resources lost. This was true on POWER8
where fast-sleep lost only TB but not per-core resources, and winkle
lost both.

This assumption is not true for POWER9 however, since there can be
states which do not lose timebase but can lose per-core SPRs.

Hence check if we need to restore the per-core hypervisor state even
if timebase is not lost.
