intel_idle: Use ACPI _CST on server systems
In many cases, especially on server systems, it is desirable to avoid enabling C-states that have been disabled in the platform firmware (BIOS) setup, except for C1E. As a rule, the C-states disabled this way are not listed by ACPI _CST, so if that is used by intel_idle along with the specific table of C-states that it has for the given processor, the C-states disabled through the platform firmware will not be enabled by default by intel_idle. Accordingly, set the use_acpi flag (introduced previously) in all server processor profiles defined in intel_idle (so as to make it use ACPI _CST to decide which C-states to enable by default) and set the CPUIDLE_FLAG_ALWAYS_ENABLE flag (also introduced previously) for C1E in all C-states tables in intel_idle that contain C1 too (so that C1E is enabled regardless of whether or not it is listed by ACPI _CST).
