 * DOC: teo-description
 *
 * The idea of this governor is based on the observation that on many systems
 * timer interrupts are two or more orders of magnitude more frequent than any
 * other interrupt types, so they are likely to dominate CPU wakeup patterns.
 * Moreover, in principle, the time when the next timer event is going to occur
 * can be determined at the idle state selection time, although doing that may
 * be costly, so it can be regarded as the most reliable source of information
 * for idle state selection.
 *
 * Of course, non-timer wakeup sources are more important in some use cases,
 * but even then it is generally unnecessary to consider idle duration values
 * greater than the time till the next timer event, referred as the sleep
 * length in what follows, because the closest timer will ultimately wake up the
 * CPU anyway unless it is woken up earlier.
 *
 * However, since obtaining the sleep length may be costly, the governor first
 * checks if it can select a shallow idle state using wakeup pattern information
 * from recent times, in which case it can do without knowing the sleep length
 * at all.  For this purpose, it counts CPU wakeup events and looks for an idle
 * state whose target residency has not exceeded the idle duration (measured
 * after wakeup) in the majority of relevant recent cases.  If the target
 * residency of that state is small enough, it may be used right away and the
 * sleep length need not be determined.
 *
 * The computations carried out by this governor are based on using bins whose
 * boundaries are aligned with the target residency parameter values of the CPU
 * idle states provided by the %CPUIdle driver in the ascending order.  That is,
 * the first bin spans from 0 up to, but not including, the target residency of
 * the second idle state (idle state 1), the second bin spans from the target
 * residency of idle state 1 up to, but not including, the target residency of
 * idle state 2, the third bin spans from the target residency of idle state 2
 * up to, but not including, the target residency of idle state 3 and so on.
 * The last bin spans from the target residency of the deepest idle state
 * supplied by the driver to infinity.
 *
 * Two metrics called "hits" and "intercepts" are associated with each bin.
 * They are updated every time before selecting an idle state for the given CPU
 * in accordance with what happened last time.
 *
 * The "hits" metric reflects the relative frequency of situations in which the
 * sleep length and the idle duration measured after CPU wakeup are close enough
 * (that is, the CPU appears to wake up "on time" relative to the sleep length).
 * In turn, the "intercepts" metric reflects the relative frequency of non-timer
 * wakeup events for which the measured idle duration is significantly different
 * from the sleep length (these events are also referred to as "intercepts"
 * below).
 *
 * The governor also counts "intercepts" with the measured idle duration below
 * the tick period length and uses this information when deciding whether or not
 * to stop the scheduler tick.
 *
 * In order to select an idle state for a CPU, the governor takes the following
 * steps (modulo the possible latency constraint that must be taken into account
 * too):
 *
 * 1. Find the deepest enabled CPU idle state (the candidate idle state) and
 *    compute 2 sums as follows:
 *
 *    - The sum of the "hits" metric for all of the idle states shallower than
 *      the candidate one (it represents the cases in which the CPU was likely
 *      woken up by a timer).
 *
 *    - The sum of the "intercepts" metric for all of the idle states shallower
 *      than the candidate one (it represents the cases in which the CPU was
 *      likely woken up by a non-timer wakeup source).
 *
 *    Also find the idle state with the maximum intercepts metric (if there are
 *    multiple states with the maximum intercepts metric, choose the one with
 *    the highest index).
 *
 * 2. If the second sum computed in step 1 is greater than a half of the sum of
 *    both metrics for the candidate state bin and all subsequent bins (if any),
 *    a shallower idle state is likely to be more suitable, so look for it.
 *
 *    - Traverse the enabled idle states shallower than the candidate one in the
 *      descending order, starting at the state with the maximum intercepts
 *      metric found in step 1.
 *
 *    - For each of them compute the sum of the "intercepts" metrics over all
 *      of the idle states between it and the candidate one (including the
 *      former and excluding the latter).
 *
 *    - If this sum is greater than a half of the second sum computed in step 1,
 *      use the given idle state as the new candidate one.
 *
 * 3. If the current candidate state is state 0 or its target residency is short
 *    enough, return it and prevent the scheduler tick from being stopped.
 *
 * 4. Obtain the sleep length value and check if it is below the target
 *    residency of the current candidate state, in which case a new shallower
 *    candidate state needs to be found, so look for it.
