ACPI: processor: idle: fix lockup regression on 32-bit ThinkPad T40
Add and ACPI idle power level limit for 32-bit ThinkPad T40. There is a regression on T40 introduced by commit d6b88ce2, starting with kernel 5.16: commit d6b88ce2 Author: Richard Gong <richard.gong@amd.com> Date: Wed Sep 22 08:31:16 2021 -0500 ACPI: processor idle: Allow playing dead in C3 state The above patch is trying to enter C3 state during init, what is causing a T40 system freeze. I have not found a similar issue on any other of my 32-bit machines. The fix is to add another exception to the processor_power_dmi_table[] list. As a result the dmesg shows as expected: [2.155398] ACPI: IBM ThinkPad T40 detected - limiting to C2 max_cstate. Override with "processor.max_cstate=9" [2.155404] ACPI: processor limited to max C-state 2 The fix is trivial and affects only vintage T40 systems.
