Parshuram Sangle 496d0a6485 cpuidle: haltpoll: do not shrink guest poll_limit_ns below grow_start
While adjusting guest halt poll limit, grow block starts at
guest_halt_poll_grow_start without taking intermediate values.
Similar behavior is expected while shrinking the value. This
avoids short interval values which are really not required.

VCPU1 trace (guest_halt_poll_shrink equals 2):

VCPU1 grow 10000
VCPU1 shrink 5000
VCPU1 shrink 2500
VCPU1 shrink 1250
VCPU1 shrink 625
VCPU1 shrink 312
VCPU1 shrink 156
VCPU1 shrink 78
VCPU1 shrink 39
VCPU1 shrink 19
VCPU1 shrink 9
VCPU1 shrink 4

Similar change is done in KVM halt poll flow with below patch:

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
