The warning is that 'rdtp->dynticks' has an unexpected value, which roughly
translates to - the calls to rcu_idle_enter() and rcu_idle_exit() were not
made in the correct order, or otherwise messed up.

And Bjørn's painstaking debugging indicated that this happens when the idle
loop enters the poll mode. Looking at the poll function cpu_idle_poll(), and
the implementation of trace_cpu_idle_rcuidle(), the problem becomes very clear:
cpu_idle_poll() lacks calls to rcu_idle_enter/exit(), and trace_cpu_idle_rcuidle()
calls them in the reverse order - first rcu_idle_exit(), and then rcu_idle_enter().
Hence the even/odd alternative sequencing of rdtp->dynticks goes for a toss.

And powertop readily triggers this because powertop uses the idle-tracing
infrastructure extensively.

So, to fix this, wrap the code in cpu_idle_poll() within rcu_idle_enter/exit(),
so that it blends properly with the calls inside trace_cpu_idle_rcuidle() and
thus get the function ordering right.
