From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>
After commit a4675fbc4a7a (cpufreq: intel_pstate: Replace timers with utilization update callbacks) the cpufreq governor callbacks may not be invoked on NOHZ_FULL CPUs and, in particular, switching to the "performance" policy via sysfs may not have any effect on them. That is a problem, because it usually is desirable to squeeze the last bit of performance out of those CPUs, so work around it by setting the maximum P-state (within the limits) in intel_pstate_set_policy() upfront when the policy is CPUFREQ_POLICY_PERFORMANCE.
