x86/idle: Sanitize X86_BUG_AMD_E400 handling

Browse source

amd_e400_idle(), the idle routine for AMD CPUs which are affected by
erratum 400 violates the RCU constraints by invoking tick_broadcast_enter()
and tick_broadcast_exit() after the core code has marked RCU non-idle.  The
functions can end up in lockdep or tracing, which rightfully triggers a
RCU warning.

The core code provides now a static branch conditional invocation of the
broadcast functions.

Remove amd_e400_idle(), enforce default_idle() and enable the static branch
on affected CPUs to cure this.

    prefix which tglx spotted. ]
