Jean Delvare 66a5f6b639 cpuidle: Default to ladder governor on ticking systems
The menu governor is currently the default on all systems. However the
documentation claims that the ladder governor is preferred on ticking
systems. So bump the rating of the ladder governor when NO_HZ is
disabled, or when booting with nohz=off.

This fixes the first half of kernel BZ #65531.
