  Backport upstream bugfix in cpuidle to fix memory corruption

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

  This is a request to backport upstream cpuidle bugfix for a memory corruption

  d52356e7f48e  powerpc: fix memory corruption by pnv_alloc_idle_core_states
  
  Space allocated for paca is based off nr_cpu_ids, but 
pnv_alloc_idle_core_states()
  iterates paca with cpu_nr_cores()*threads_per_core, which is using NR_CPUS. 
  This causes pnv_alloc_idle_core_states() to write over memory, which is 
outside 
  of paca array and may later lead to various panics.

  Fixes: 7cba160ad789 (powernv/cpuidle: Redesign idle states management)
