x86/umwait: Initialize umwait control values
umwait or tpause allows the processor to enter a light-weight
power/performance optimized state (C0.1 state) or an improved
power/performance optimized state (C0.2 state) for a period specified by
the instruction or until the system time limit or until a store to the
monitored address range in umwait.
IA32_UMWAIT_CONTROL MSR register allows the OS to enable/disable C0.2 on
the processor and to set the maximum time the processor can reside in C0.1
or C0.2.
By default C0.2 is enabled so the user wait instructions can enter the
C0.2 state to save more power with slower wakeup time.
Andy Lutomirski proposed to set the maximum umwait time to 100000 cycles by
default. A quote from Andy:
"What I want to avoid is the case where it works dramatically differently
on NO_HZ_FULL systems as compared to everything else. Also, UMWAIT may
behave a bit differently if the max timeout is hit, and I'd like that
path to get exercised widely by making it happen even on default
configs."
A sysfs interface to adjust the time and the C0.2 enablement is provided in
a follow up change.
[ tglx: Renamed MSR_IA32_UMWAIT_CONTROL_MAX_TIME to
MSR_IA32_UMWAIT_CONTROL_TIME_MASK because the constant is used as
mask throughout the code.
