intel_idle: export both C1 and C1E
Here we disable HW promotion of C1 to C1E
and export both C1 and C1E and distinct C-states.
This allows a cpuidle governor to choose a lower latency
C-state than C1E when necessary to satisfy performance
and QOS constraints -- and still save power versus polling.
This also corrects the erroneous latency previously reported
for C1E -- it is 10usec, not 1usec.
Note that if you use "intel_idle.max_cstate=N",
then you must increment N by 1 to get the same behavior
after this change.
