Subject[PATCH v4 6/6] x86: intel_pstate: handle runtime turbo disablement/enablement in freq. invariance
Date
On some platforms such as the Dell XPS 13 laptop the firmware disables turbo
when the machine is disconnected from AC, and viceversa it enables it again
when it's reconnected. In these cases a _PPC ACPI notification is issued.

The scheduler needs to know freq_max for frequency-invariant calculations.
To account for turbo availability to come and go, record freq_max at boot as
if turbo was available and store it in a helper variable. Use a setter
function to swap between 1024 and freq_max every time turbo goes off or on.

Reminder: "freq_max" isn't really the maximum frequency but the ratio
turbo_freq*1024/base_freq, which becomes 1024 when turbo is disabled. The name
could be misleading but makes explainations a lot simpler and is really
convenient in calculations.
