rtl_ps_enable_nic() is called from loops that will loop until this function
returns true or a
maximum number of retries is performed.
hw_init() returns non-zero on error. In that situation return false to

This patchset is a precursor for enabling deep idle states on powerpc,
when the local CPU timers stop. The tick broadcast framework in
the Linux Kernel today handles wakeup of such CPUs at their next timer event
by using an external clock device. At the expiry of this clock device, IPIs
are sent

Actually, things aren't as simple as they seem. Without the patch applied:
Hi Linus,
Various build-related minor bits.
Most of this is work by David Woodhouse to be able to compile the
early boot code with clang/llvm; we have also managed to push an
actual -m16 option into gcc 4.9 so this makes us use that option if
available instead of hacking it.
The balance is a

Garbage collector work does not have to be bound to the CPU that scheduled
it. By moving work to the power-efficient workqueue, the selection of
CPU executing the work is left to the scheduler. This extends idle
residency times and conserves power.
This functionality is

For better use of CPU idle time, allow the scheduler to select the CPU
on which the timeout work of regulatory settings would be executed.
This extends CPU idle residency time and saves power.
This functionality is enabled when CONFIG_WQ_POWER_EFFICIENT is selected.
