ACPI: allow C3 > 1000usec
Do for C3 what the previous patch did for C2. The C2 patch was in response to a highly visible and multiply reported C-state/turbo failure, while this change has no bug report in-hand. This will enable C3 in Linux on systems where BIOS overstates C3 latency in _CST. It will also enable future systems which may actually have C3 > 1000usec. Linux has always ignored ACPI BIOS C3 with exit latency > 1000 usec, and the ACPI spec is clear that is correct FADT-supplied C3. However, the ACPI spec explicitly states that _CST-supplied C-states have no latency limits. So move the 1000usec C3 test out of the code shared by FADT and _CST code-paths, and into the FADT-specific path. Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
