tracing, x86, cpuidle: Move the end point of a C state in the power tracer

The "end of a C state" trace point currently happens before
the code runs that corrects the TSC for having stopped during idle.

The result of this is that the timestamp of the end-of-C-state event
is garbage on cpus where the TSC stops during idle.

This patch moves the end point of the C state to after the timekeeping
engine of the kernel has been corrected.
