[PATCH 2.6.26.y] cpuidle: 40000 wake/s unless idle=nomwait

[PATCH 2.6.26.y] cpuidle: 40000 wake/s unless idle=nomwait

[Len Brown]

From: Venkatesh Pallipadi <venkatesh.pallipadi@intel.com>

upstream 2.6.27: 320eee776357db52d6fcfb11cff985b1976a4595
"cpuidle: Menu governor fix wrong usage of measured_us"
fixes http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10914
"40000 wake/s unless idle=nomwait"


There is a bug in menu governor where we have
		if (data->elapsed_us < data->elapsed_us + measured_us)

with measured_us already having elapsed_us added in tickless case here
	unsigned int measured_us =
		cpuidle_get_last_residency(dev) + data->elapsed_us;

Also, it should be last_residency, not measured_us, that need to be used to
do comparing and distinguish between expected & non-expected events.

Refactor menu_reflect() to fix these two problems.
