X86_FEATURE_FXSAVE_LEAK, X86_FEATURE_11AP and
X86_FEATURE_CLFLUSH_MONITOR are not really features but synthetic bits
we use for applying different bug workarounds. Call them what they
really are, and make sure they get the proper cross-CPU behavior (OR
rather than AND).

With various drivers wanting to inject idle time; we get people
calling idle routines outside of the idle loop proper.
Therefore we need to be extra careful about not missing
TIF_NEED_RESCHED -> PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED propagations.
While looking at this, I also realized there's a small window in the
existing idle loop where we can miss TIF_NEED_RESCHED; when it hits
right after the tif_need_resched() test at the end of the loop but
right before the need_resched() test at the start of the loop.
So move preempt_fold_need_resched() out of the loop where we're
guaranteed to have TIF_NEED_RESCHED set.

Use static_cpu_has() to conditionalize the CLFLUSH workaround, and add
memory barriers around it since the documentation is explicit that
CLFLUSH is only ordered with respect to MFENCE.

People seem to delight in writing wrong and broken mwait idle routines;
collapse the lot.
This leaves mwait_play_dead() the sole remaining user of __mwait() and
new __mwait() users are probably doing it wrong.
Also remove __sti_mwait() as its unused.

Remove the assumption that cstate_tables are
indexed by MWAIT flag values. Each entry
identifies itself via its own flags value.
This change is needed to support multiple states
that share the same MWAIT flags.
Note that this can have an effect on what state is described
by 'N' on cmdline intel_idle.max_cstate=N on some systems.
intel_idle.max_cstate=0 still disables the driver
intel_idle.max_cstate=1 still results in just C1(E)
However, "place holders" in the sparse C-state name-space
(eg. Atom) have been removed.

Cosmetic only.
Replace use of MWAIT_MAX_NUM_CSTATES with CPUIDLE_STATE_MAX.
They are both 8, so this patch has no functional change.
The reason to change is that intel_idle will soon be able
to export more than the 8 "major" states supported by MWAIT.
When we hit that limit, it is important to know
where the limit comes from.

We have MWAIT constants spread across three different .c files, for no
good reason. Move them all into a common header file.
