[RFC PATCH v2 2/2] power/idle: enhance the precision of sleep_length

[zhaoyang.huang@linaro.org]

From: Zhaoyang Huang <zhaoyang.huang@spreadtrum.com>

There should be a gap between tick_nohz_idle_enter and
tick_nohz_get_sleep_length when idle, which will cause the
sleep_length is not very precised. Change it in this patch.
