Subject[RFC PATCH] cpufreq: powernv: Add fast_switch callback
Date
Add fast_switch driver callback to support frequency update in
interrupt context while using schedutil governor. Changing frequency
in interrupt context will remove the jitter on the workloads which can
be seen when a kworker thread is used for the changing the frequency.
