Revert "cpuidle: Quickly notice prediction failure in general case"
Revert commit e11538d1 (cpuidle: Quickly notice prediction failure in general case), since it depends on commit 69a37be (cpuidle: Quickly notice prediction failure for repeat mode) that has been identified as the source of a significant performance regression in v3.8 and later. Requested-by: Jeremy Eder <jeder@redhat.com> Tested-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com> Cc: 3.8+ <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>
