But I do, 100% of the time on real hardware which is Acer Ferrari One.

The symptom is that the new WARN_ON() triggers pretty much on every
cpuidle transition for me which makes the machine unuseable.

That may be a result of a different bug, but the box evidently works
without the hunk in arch/x86/kernel/process.c, so I'd prefer to drop it
for now.

Moreover, I have a couple of questions regarding the implementation.

First, why are we returning -EINVAL if acpi_idle_suspend is set? Surely,
something like -EBUSY or -EAGAIN would be better here, wouldn't it?

Second, is the cpu_relax() before returning really necessary?

Finally, the hunk in acpi_idle_enter_bm() still looks ugly. I'd prefer
something like this instead:

@@ -907,7 +928,10 @@ static int acpi_idle_enter_bm(struct cpu

+ if (!acpi_idle_suspend)
+ acpi_safe_halt();
+
local_irq_enable();
return -EINVAL;
}

if (cx->entry_method != ACPI_CSTATE_FFH) {
current_thread_info()->status &= ~TS_POLLING;
/*

Hmm?

The patch has been dropped from the linux-pm tree (hopefully for now).

Thanks,
Rafael
