Vaidyanathan Srinivasan 8d4e10e9ed powerpc/powernv/idle: Round up latency and residency values
On PowerNV platforms, firmware provides exit latency and
target residency for each of the idle states in nano
seconds.  Cpuidle framework expects the values in micro
seconds.  Round up to nearest micro seconds to avoid errors
in cases where the values are defined as fractional micro
seconds.

Default idle state of 'snooze' has exit latency of zero.  If
other states have fractional micro second exit latency, they
would get rounded down to zero micro second and make cpuidle
framework choose deeper idle state when snooze loop is the
right choice.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
