[PATCH v1 1/5] cpuidle: governors: teo: Avoid selecting states with zero-size bins

["Rafael J. Wysocki" <rafael@kernel.org>]

From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>

If the last two enabled idle states have the same target residency which
is at least equal to TICK_NSET, teo may select the next-to-last one even
though the size of that state's bin is 0, which is confusing.

Prevent that from happening by adding a target residency check to the
relevant code path.
