With CPU bound workload and 20% idle injection ratio, this patch
improves performance per watt by 3.2% on Ivy Bridge system with
Package C7 as the deepest idle.
The above packages C-state residency explains why, i.e. more deeper PC7
when tick is stopped.
With newer CPUs, this improvements should be more visible in that
low power package C-states are getting deeper/less power. I will test
on Skylake client as soon as I have time.
Thanks,
Jacob
