Wysocki If poll_idle() is allowed to spin until need_resched() returns 'true', it may actually spin for a much longer time than expected by the idle governor, since set_tsk_need_resched() is not always called by the timer interrupt handler. If that happens, the CPU may spend much more time than anticipated in the "polling" state. To prevent that from happening, limit the time of the spinning loop in poll_idle(). Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
