You'r right. save some checking is good thing to do.

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] cpuidle/menu: add per cpu pm_qos_resume_latency
 consideration

Kernel or user may have special requirement on cpu response time, like
if a interrupt is pinned to a cpu, we don't want the cpu goes too deep
sleep. This patch can prevent this thing happen by consider per cpu
resume_latency setting in cpu sleep state selection in menu governor.

The pm_qos_resume_latency ask device to give reponse in this time. That's
similar with cpu cstates' entry_latency + exit_latency. But since
most of cpu cstate either has no entry_latency or add it into exit_latency
So, we just can restrict this time requirement as states exit_latency.

We can set a wanted latency value according to the value of
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/cpuidle/stateX/latency. to just a bit
less than related state's latency value. Then cpu can get to this state
or higher.

That's a good idea. I will give a draft change to review! :)
