commit a3299182216397a0b943d2549d1997f4eba2bdd2 upstream
Backport summary: Backport to 5.4.49 for ICX intel_idle support
Add an admin-guide document for the intel_idle driver to describe
how it works: how it enumerates idle states, what happens during the
initialization of it, how it can be controlled via the kernel command
line and so on.

commit 75a80267410e38ab76c4ceb39753f96d72113781 upstream
Backport summary: Backport to 5.4.49 for ICX intel_idle support
In certain situations it may be useful to prevent some idle states
from being used by default while allowing user space to enable them
later on.
For this purpose, introduce a new state flag, CPUIDLE_FLAG_OFF, to
mark idle states that should be disabled by default, make the core
set CPUIDLE_STATE_DISABLED_BY_USER for those states at the
initialization time and add a new state attribute in sysfs,
"default_status", to inform user space of the initial status of
the given idle state ("disabled" if CPUIDLE_FLAG_OFF is set for it,
"enabled" otherwise).
