commit 233323f9b9f828cd7cd5145ad811c1990b692542 upstream.
The acpi_cst_latency_cmp() comparison function currently used for
sorting C-state latencies does not satisfy transitivity, causing
incorrect sorting results.
Specifically, if there are two valid acpi_processor_cx elements A and B
and one invalid element C, it may occur that A < B, A = C, and B = C.
Sorting algorithms assume that if A < B and A = C, then C < B, leading
to incorrect ordering.
Given the small size of the array (<=8), we replace the library sort
function with a simple insertion sort that properly ignores invalid
elements and sorts valid ones based on latency. This change ensures
correct ordering of the C-state latencies.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
