[PATCH 5/6] cpuidle: menu: Avoid computations for very close timers

[Rafael J. Wysocki]

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

If the next timer event (with the tick excluded) is closer than the
target residency of the second state or the PM QoS latency constraint
is below its exit latency, state[0] will be used regardless of any
other factors, so skip the computations in menu_select() then and
return 0 straight away from it.

Still, do that after the bucket has been determined to avoid
disturbing the wakeup statistics in general.
