xen/enlighten: Disable MWAIT_LEAF so that acpi-pad won't be loaded.
There are exactly four users of __monitor and __mwait: - cstate.c (which allows acpi_processor_ffh_cstate_enter to be called when the cpuidle API drivers are used. However patch "cpuidle: replace xen access to x86 pm_idle and default_idle" provides a mechanism to disable the cpuidle and use safe_halt. - smpboot (which allows mwait_play_dead to be called). However safe_halt is always used so we skip that. - intel_idle (same deal as above). - acpi_pad.c. This the one that we do not want to run as we will hit the below crash. Why do we want to expose MWAIT_LEAF in the first place? We want it for the xen-acpi-processor driver - which uploads C-states to the hypervisor. If MWAIT_LEAF is set, the cstate.c sets the proper address in the C-states so that the hypervisor can benefit from using the MWAIT functionality. And that is the sole reason for using it. Without this patch, if a module performs mwait or monitor we get this: invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP CPU 2 .. snip..
