Title:
[APL][SAUCE] System works slowly due to a monitor bug
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
[Impact]
We've found a bug on some Apollo Lake system makes it runs very slow.
From upstream it is caused by following reason:
"Monitored cached line may not wake up from mwait on certain Goldmont
based CPUs. This patch will avoid calling
current_set_polling_and_test() and thereby not set the TIF_ flag. The
result is that we'll always send IPIs for wakeups."
[Fix]
Upstream already provided a workaround[1] to fix this problem. This
patches haven't been merged in latest(v4.7) release but already in
linux-next.
To fix this issue in Xenial it also needs another commit introduces
macros use in the workaround:

x86/cpu/intel: Introduce macros for Intel family numbers

further regressions is expected
