Subject: [PATCH 1/2] cpuidle: Remove unnecessary current_clr_polling_and_test() from haltpoll

When cpuidle drivers ->enter() callback are called, the TIF_NR_POLLING
flag is cleared already and TIF_NEED_RESCHED checked by call_cpuidle().

Therefore calling current_clr_polling_and_test() is redundant here and
further setting of TIF_NEED_RESCHED will result in an IPI and thus an
idle loop exit. This call can be safely removed.
