From a4c447533a18ee86e07232d6344ba12b1f9c5077 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Len Brown Date: Thu, 9 Nov 2017 02:19:39 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] intel_idle: Graceful probe failure when MWAIT is disabled When MWAIT is disabled, intel_idle refuses to probe. But it may mis-lead the user by blaming this on the model number: intel_idle: does not run on family 6 modesl 79 So defer the check for MWAIT until after the model# white-list check succeeds, and if the MWAIT check fails, tell the user how to fix it: intel_idle: Please enable MWAIT in BIOS SETUP Signed-off-by: Len Brown Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
