Subject[PATCH][v2] intel_idle: Customize IceLake server support
Date
On ICX platform, the CPU frequency will slowly ramp up
when woken up from C-states deeper than/equals to C1E.
Although this feature does save energy in many cases
this might also cause unexpected result. For example,
workload might get unstable performance due to the uncertainty
of CPU frequency. Besides, the CPU frequency might not be locked
to specific level when the CPU utilization is low.

Thus this patch disables C1E auto-promotion and expose
C1E as a separate idle state, so that the C1E and C6 can
be disabled via sysfs when necessary.

Besides C1 and C1E, the exit latency of C6 was measured
by a dedicated tool. However the exit latency(41us) exposed
by _CST is much smaller than the one we measured(128us). This
is probably due to the _CST uses the exit latency when woken
up from PC0+C6, rather than PC6+C6 when C6 was measured. Choose
the latter as we need the longest latency in theory.
