cpuidle: Add new macro to enter a retention idle state
If a CPU is entering a low power idle state where it doesn't lose any
context, then there is no need to call cpu_pm_enter()/cpu_pm_exit().
Add a new macro(CPU_PM_CPU_IDLE_ENTER_RETENTION) to be used by cpuidle
drivers when they are entering retention state. By not calling
cpu_pm_enter and cpu_pm_exit we reduce the latency involved in
entering and exiting the retention idle states.
CPU_PM_CPU_IDLE_ENTER_RETENTION assumes that no state is lost and
hence CPU PM notifiers will not be called. We may need a broader
change if we need to support partial retention states effeciently.
On ARM64 based Qualcomm Server Platform we measured below overhead for
for calling cpu_pm_enter and cpu_pm_exit for retention states.
workload: stress --hdd #CPUs --hdd-bytes 32M -t 30
Average overhead of cpu_pm_enter - 1.2us
Average overhead of cpu_pm_exit - 3.1us
