powerpc/64s/idle: Process interrupts from system reset wakeup
When the CPU wakes from low power state, it begins at the system reset interrupt with the exception that caused the wakeup encoded in SRR1. Today, powernv idle wakeup ignores the wakeup reason (except a special case for HMI), and the regular interrupt corresponding to the exception will fire after the idle wakeup exits. Change this to replay the interrupt from the idle wakeup before interrupts are hard-enabled. Test on POWER8 of context_switch selftests benchmark with polling idle disabled (e.g., always nap, giving cross-CPU IPIs) gives the following results: original wakeup direct Different threads, same core: 315k/s 264k/s Different cores: 235k/s 242k/s There is a slowdown for doorbell IPI (same core) case because system reset wakeup does not clear the message and the doorbell interrupt fires again needlessly.
