intel_idle: open broadcast clock event
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Intel_idle driver uses CLOCK_EVT_NOTIFY_BROADCAST_ENTER
CLOCK_EVT_NOTIFY_BROADCAST_EXIT
for broadcast clock events. The _ENTER/_EXIT doesn't really open broadcast clock
events, please see processor_idle.c for an example. In some situation, this will
cause boot hang, because some CPUs enters idle but local APIC timer stalls.
