[PATCH 2/3] sched / idle: Call default_idle_call() from cpuidle_enter_state()

From: Rafael J. Wysocki
Date: Sat May 09 2015 - 18:56:09 EST


From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@xxxxxxxxx>

The check of the cpuidle_enter() return value against -EBUSY
made in call_cpuidle() will not be necessary any more if
cpuidle_enter_state() calls default_idle_call() directly when it
is about to return -EBUSY, so make that happen and eliminate the
check.
