[ Upstream commit e5c9ffc6ae ]
On certain platforms (PowerNV systems without a power-mgt DT node),
cpuidle may register only a single idle state. In cases where that
single state is a polling state (state 0), the ladder governor may
incorrectly treat state 1 as the first usable state and pass an
out-of-bounds index. This can lead to a NULL enter callback being
invoked, ultimately resulting in a system crash.
[ 13.342636] cpuidle-powernv : Only Snooze is available
[ 13.351854] Faulting instruction address: 0x00000000
[ 13.376489] NIP [0000000000000000] 0x0
[ 13.378351] LR [c000000001e01974] cpuidle_enter_state+0x2c4/0x668
Fix this by adding a bail-out in cpuidle_select() that returns state 0
directly when state_count <= 1, bypassing the governor and keeping the
tick running.
