Snooze has a timeout so that if a CPU stays in snooze for more than target residency of the next available idle state, then it would exit thereby giving chance to the cpuidle governor to re-evaluate and promote the CPU to a deeper idle state. Therefore whenever snooze exits due to this timeout, its last_residency will be target_residency of the next deeper state. Commit e93e59ce5b85 "cpuidle: Replace ktime_get() with local_clock()" changed the math around last_residency calculation. Specifically, while converting last_residency value from nano- to microseconds, it carries out right shift by 10. Because of that, in snooze timeout exit scenarios last_residency calculated is roughly 2.3% less than target_residency of the next available state. This pattern is picked up by get_typical_interval() in the menu governor and therefore expected_interval in menu_select() is frequently less than the target_residency of any state other than snooze. Due to this we are entering snooze at a higher rate, thereby affecting the single thread performance. Fix this by using more precise division via ktime_us_delta().
