      x86, hotplug: Fix powersavings with offlined cores on AMD · 93789b32
      Borislav Petkov authored
      ea530692 made a CPU use monitor/mwait
      when offline. This is not the optimal choice for AMD wrt to powersavings
      and we'd prefer our cores to halt (i.e. enter C1) instead. For this, the
      same selection whether to use monitor/mwait has to be used as when we
      select the idle routine for the machine.
      
      With this patch, offlining cores 1-5 on a X6 machine allows core0 to
      boost again.
      
      [ hpa: putting this in urgent since it is a (power) regression fix ]
