x86/cstate: fix mwait hint target cstate calc

According to x86 manual (Intel SDM Vol 2, Table 4-11. MWAIT Hints
Register (EAX) and AMD manual Vol 3, MWAIT), mwait hint[7:4] adds 1 is
the corresponding cstate, and 0xF means C0, so fix the handling of
0xF -> C0.

Intel: "Value of 0 means C1; 1 means C2 and so on
Value of 01111B means C0".

AMD: "The processor C-state is EAX[7:4]+1, so to request C0 is to place
the value F in EAX[7:4] and to request C1 is to place the value 0 in
EAX[7:4].".

Yes, 0x0F is defined to correspond to C0.  However, the value in
question is never equal to 0x0F in any of the functions modified by
this patch.

What's the purpose of the modification, then?

Hi, this is found when I tweak ACPI cstate table qemu presenting to VM.

Usually, ACPI cstate table only contains C1+, but nothing prevents ACPI 
firmware from presenting a cstate (maybe C1+) but using a mwait address 
C0 (i.e., 0xF in ACPI FFH MWAIT hint address). And if this is the case, 
Linux erroneously treat this cstate as C16, while actually this should 
be legal C0 state.

As I think ACPI firmware is out of Linux kernel scope, so I think it’s 
better for Linux kernel to implement here referring to spec, how do you 
think? :)

That's fair, but you need to put the above information into the patch
changelog.  Otherwise it is unclear why you want to make this change.

Ok, will send a V2 patch.
