Viresh Kumar da5c504c7a cpufreq: intel_pstate: Implement QoS supported freq constraints
Intel pstate driver exposes min_perf_pct and max_perf_pct sysfs files,
which can be used to force a limit on the min/max P state of the driver.
Though these files eventually control the min/max frequencies that the
CPUs will run at, they don't make a change to policy->min/max values.

When the values of these files are changed (in passive mode of the
driver), it leads to calling ->limits() callback of the cpufreq
governors, like schedutil. On a call to it the governors shall
forcefully update the frequency to come within the limits. Since the
limits, i.e.  policy->min/max, aren't updated by the driver, the
governors fails to get the target freq within limit and sometimes aborts
the update believing that the frequency is already set to the target
value.

This patch implements the QoS supported frequency constraints to update
policy->min/max values whenever min_perf_pct or max_perf_pct files are
updated. This is only done for the passive mode as of now, as the driver
is already working fine in active mode.

README

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.
