Now that the cpu device registration initialises the of_node(if available)
appropriately for all the cpus, parsing here is redundant.
This patch removes all DT parsing and uses cpu->of_node instead.

This patch tries to fix lockdep complaint attached below.
It seems that we should always read acquire the cpufreq_rwsem,
whether CONFIG_SMP is enabled or not. And CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU
depends on CONFIG_SMP, so it seems we don't need CONFIG_SMP for the
code enabled by CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU.

cpufreq_policy_cpu per-cpu variables are used for storing the ID of
the CPU that manages the given CPU's policy. However, we also store
a policy pointer for each cpu in cpufreq_cpu_data, so the
cpufreq_policy_cpu information is simply redundant.
It is better to use cpufreq_cpu_data to retrieve a policy and get
policy->cpu from there, so make that happen everywhere and drop the
cpufreq_policy_cpu per-cpu variables which aren't necessary any more.

cpufreq_policy_list is a list of active policies. We do remove
policies from this list when all CPUs belonging to that policy are
removed. But during system suspend we don't really free a policy
struct as it will be used again during resume, so we didn't remove
it from cpufreq_policy_list as well..
However, this is incorrect. We are saying this policy isn't valid
anymore and must not be referenced (though we haven't freed it), but
it can still be used by code that iterates over cpufreq_policy_list.
Remove policy from this list during system suspend as well.
Of course, we must add it back whenever the first CPU belonging to
that policy shows up.

when the new target frequency is same as the current one. This case usually
occurs with governors like ondemand which passes the target frequency as the
percentage of average frequency. This check is present in most of the cpufreq

Chapter 14 of Documentation/CodingStyle says:
The preferred form for passing a size of a struct is the following:
p = kmalloc(sizeof(*p), ...);
The alternative form where struct name is spelled out hurts
readability and introduces an opportunity for a bug when the pointer
variable type is changed but the corresponding sizeof that is passed
to a memory allocator is not.
This wasn't followed consistently in drivers/cpufreq, let's make it
more consistent by always following this rule.

The only case triggering a jump to the err_out_unregister label in
__cpufreq_add_dev() is when cpufreq_add_dev_interface() fails.
However, if cpufreq_add_dev_interface() fails, it calls kobject_put()
for the policy kobject in its error code path and since that causes
the kobject's refcount to become 0, the additional kobject_put() for
the same kobject under err_out_unregister and the
wait_for_completion() following it are pointless, so drop them.

The cpufreq core is a little inconsistent in the way it uses the
driver module refcount.
Namely, if __cpufreq_add_dev() is called for a CPU that doesn't
share the policy object with any other CPUs, the driver module
refcount it grabs to start with will be dropped by it before
returning and will be equal to whatever it had been before that
function was invoked.
However, if the given CPU does share the policy object with other
CPUs, either cpufreq_add_policy_cpu() is called to link the new CPU
to the existing policy, or cpufreq_add_dev_symlink() is used to link
the other CPUs sharing the policy with it to the just created policy
object. In that case, because both cpufreq_add_policy_cpu() and
cpufreq_add_dev_symlink() call cpufreq_cpu_get() for the given
policy (the latter possibly many times) without the balancing
cpufreq_cpu_put() (unless there is an error), the driver module
refcount will be left by __cpufreq_add_dev() with a nonzero value
(different from the initial one).
To remove that inconsistency make cpufreq_add_policy_cpu() execute
cpufreq_cpu_put() for the given policy before returning, which
decrements the driver module refcount so that it will be equal to its
initial value after __cpufreq_add_dev() returns. Also remove the
cpufreq_cpu_get() call from cpufreq_add_dev_symlink(), since both the
policy refcount and the driver module refcount are nonzero when it is
called and they don't need to be bumped up by it.
Accordingly, drop the cpufreq_cpu_put() from __cpufreq_remove_dev(),
since it is only necessary to balance the cpufreq_cpu_get() called
by cpufreq_add_policy_cpu() or cpufreq_add_dev_symlink().

Now that we have the infrastructure to perform a light-weight init/tear-down,
use that in the cpufreq CPU hotplug notifier when invoked from the
suspend/resume path.
This also ensures that the file permissions of the cpufreq sysfs files are

To perform light-weight cpu-init and teardown in the cpufreq subsystem
during suspend/resume, we need to separate out the 2 main functionalities
of the cpufreq CPU hotplug callbacks, as outlined below:
1. Init/tear-down of core cpufreq and CPU-specific components, which are
critical to the correct functioning of the cpufreq subsystem.
2. Init/tear-down of cpufreq sysfs files during suspend/resume.
The first part requires accurate updates to the policy structure such as
its ->cpus and ->related_cpus masks, whereas the second part requires that
the policy->kobj structure is not released or re-initialized during
suspend/resume.
To handle both these requirements, we need to allow updates to the policy
structure throughout suspend/resume, but prevent the structure from getting
freed up. Also, we must have a mechanism by which the cpu-up callbacks can
restore the policy structure, without allocating things afresh. (That also
helps avoid memory leaks).
To achieve this, we use 2 schemes:
a. Use a fallback per-cpu storage area for preserving the policy structures
during suspend, so that they can be restored during resume appropriately.
b. Use the 'frozen' flag to determine when to free or allocate the policy
structure vs when to restore the policy from the saved fallback storage.
Thus we can successfully preserve the structure across suspend/resume.
Effectively, this helps us complete the separation of the 'light-weight'
and the 'full' init/tear-down sequences in the cpufreq subsystem, so that
this can be made use of in the suspend/resume scenario.

The call to cpufreq_update_policy() is placed in the CPU hotplug callback
of cpufreq_stats, which has a higher priority than the CPU hotplug callback
of cpufreq-core. As a result, during CPU_ONLINE/CPU_ONLINE_FROZEN, we end up
calling cpufreq_update_policy() *before* calling cpufreq_add_dev() !
And for uninitialized CPUs, it just returns silently, not doing anything.
To add to that, cpufreq_stats is not even the right place to call
cpufreq_update_policy() to begin with. The cpufreq core ought to handle
this in its own callback, from an elegance/relevance perspective.
So move the invocation of cpufreq_update_policy() to cpufreq_cpu_callback,
and place it *after* cpufreq_add_dev().

This sysfs file was called ignore_nice_load earlier and commit
4d5dcc4 (cpufreq: governor: Implement per policy instances of
governors) changed its name to ignore_nice by mistake.
Lets get it renamed back to its original name.

Commit 42913c799 (MIPS: Loongson2: Use clk API instead of direct
dereferences) broke the cpufreq functionality on Loongson2 boards:
clk_set_rate() is called before the CPU frequency table is
initialized, and therefore will always fail.
Fix by moving the clk_set_rate() after the table initialization.
Tested on Lemote FuLoong mini-PC.

Since cpufreq_cpu_put() called by __cpufreq_remove_dev() drops the
driver module refcount, __cpufreq_remove_dev() causes that refcount
to become negative for the cpufreq driver after a suspend/resume
cycle.
This is not the only bad thing that happens there, however, because
kobject_put() should only be called for the policy kobject at this
point if the CPU is not the last one for that policy.
Namely, if the given CPU is the last one for that policy, the
policy kobject's refcount should be 1 at this point, as set by
cpufreq_add_dev_interface(), and only needs to be dropped once for
the kobject to go away. This actually happens under the cpu == 1
check, so it need not be done before by cpufreq_cpu_put().
On the other hand, if the given CPU is not the last one for that
policy, this means that cpufreq_add_policy_cpu() has been called
at least once for that policy and cpufreq_cpu_get() has been
called for it too. To balance that cpufreq_cpu_get(), we need to
call cpufreq_cpu_put() in that case.
Thus, to fix the described problem and keep the reference
counters balanced in both cases, move the cpufreq_cpu_get() call
in __cpufreq_remove_dev() to the code path executed only for
CPUs that share the policy with other CPUs.

The target frequency calculation method in the ondemand governor has
changed and it is now independent of the measured average frequency.
Consequently, the __cpufreq_driver_getavg() function and getavg
member of struct cpufreq_driver are not used any more, so drop them.

The ondemand governor calculates load in terms of frequency and
increases it only if load_freq is greater than up_threshold
multiplied by the current or average frequency. This appears to
produce oscillations of frequency between min and max because,
for example, a relatively small load can easily saturate minimum
frequency and lead the CPU to the max. Then, it will decrease
back to the min due to small load_freq.
Change the calculation method of load and target frequency on the
basis of the following two observations:
- Load computation should not depend on the current or average
measured frequency. For example, absolute load of 80% at 100MHz
is not necessarily equivalent to 8% at 1000MHz in the next
sampling interval.
- It should be possible to increase the target frequency to any
value present in the frequency table proportional to the absolute
load, rather than to the max only, so that:
Target frequency = C * load
where we take C = policy->cpuinfo.max_freq / 100.
Tested on Intel i7-3770 CPU @ 3.40GHz and on Quad core 1500MHz Krait.
Phoronix benchmark of Linux Kernel Compilation 3.1 test shows an
increase ~1.5% in performance. cpufreq_stats (time_in_state) shows
that middle frequencies are used more, with this patch. Highest
and lowest frequencies were used less by ~9%.
[rjw: We have run multiple other tests on kernels with this
change applied and in the vast majority of cases it turns out
that the resulting performance improvement also leads to reduced
consumption of energy. The change is additionally justified by
the overall simplification of the code in question.]

Change to using max P-state instead of max turbo P-state. This
change resolves two issues.
On a quiet system intel_pstate can fail to respond to a load change.
On CPU SKUs that have a limited number of P-states and no turbo range
intel_pstate fails to select the highest available P-state.
This change is suitable for stable v3.9+
