intel_idle: Graceful probe failure when MWAIT is disabled
When MWAIT is disabled, intel_idle refuses to probe. But it may mis-lead the user by blaming this on the model number: intel_idle: does not run on family 6 modesl 79 So defer the check for MWAIT until after the model# white-list check succeeds, and if the MWAIT check fails, tell the user how to fix it: intel_idle: Please enable MWAIT in BIOS SETUP Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
