1032 bytes is larger than 1024 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=]

CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y is enabled by default for most distros, and
hence we can work around the warning by using cpumask_var_t.

cpufreq: unify show() and store() naming and use __ATTR_XX

Usually, sysfs attributes have .show and .store and their naming
convention is filename_show() and filename_store().

But in cpufreq the naming convention of these functions is
show_filename() and store_filename() which prevents __ATTR_RW() and
__ATTR_RO() from being used in there to simplify code.

Accordingly, change the naming convention of the sysfs .show and
.store methods in cpufreq to follow the one expected by __ATTR_RW()
and __ATTR_RO() and use these macros in that code.

There are currently 2 ways to create a set of sysfs files for a
kobj_type, through the default_attrs field, and the default_groups
field. Move the cpufreq code to use default_groups field which has been
the preferred way since aa30f47cf666 ("kobject: Add support for default
attribute groups to kobj_type") so that we can soon get rid of the
obsolete default_attrs field.

This newly introduced flag can be applied by a governor to a CPUFreq
relation, when looking for a frequency within the policy table. The
resolution would then only walk through efficient frequencies.

Even with the flag set, the policy max limit will still be honoured. If no
efficient frequencies can be found within the limits of the policy, an
inefficient one would be returned.

cpufreq: Register governors at core_initcall

Currently, most CPUFreq governors are registered at the core_initcall
time when the given governor is the default one, and the module_init
time otherwise.

In preparation for letting users specify the default governor on the
kernel command line, change all of them to be registered at the
core_initcall unconditionally, as it is already the case for the
schedutil and performance governors. This will allow us to assume
that builtin governors have been registered before the built-in
CPUFreq drivers probe.

And since all governors have similar init/exit patterns now, introduce
two new macros, cpufreq_governor_{init,exit}(), to factorize the code.

cpufreq: governor: Drop min_sampling_rate

The cpufreq core and governors aren't supposed to set a limit on how
fast we want to try changing the frequency. This is currently done for
the legacy governors with help of min_sampling_rate.

At worst, we may end up setting the sampling rate to a value lower than
the rate at which frequency can be changed and then one of the CPUs in
the policy will be only changing frequency for ever.

But that is something for the user to decide and there is no need to
have special handling for such cases in the core. Leave it for the user
to figure out.

cpufreq: ondemand: Set MIN_FREQUENCY_UP_THRESHOLD to 1

Currently the minimal up_threshold is 11, and user may want to
use a smaller minimal up_threshold for performance tuning,
so MIN_FREQUENCY_UP_THRESHOLD could be set to 1 because:

1. Current systems wouldn't be affected as they have already
a value >= 11.
2. New systems with a default kernel would keep still the default
value that is >= 11.

Users now have the advantage that they can make their own decisions
and customize the 'trip point' to switch to the max frequency.

cpufreq: Remove cpufreq_frequency_get_table()

Most of the callers of cpufreq_frequency_get_table() already have the
pointer to a valid 'policy' structure and they don't really need to go
through the per-cpu variable first and then a check to validate the
frequency, in order to find the freq-table for the policy.

Directly use the policy->freq_table field instead for them.

Only one user of that API is left after above changes, cpu_cooling.c and
it accesses the freq_table in a racy way as the policy can get freed in
between.

Fix it by using cpufreq_cpu_get() properly.

Since there are no more users of cpufreq_frequency_get_table() left, get
rid of it.

cpufreq: Drop the 'initialized' field from struct cpufreq_governor

The 'initialized' field in struct cpufreq_governor is only used by
the conservative governor (as a usage counter) and the way that
happens is far from straightforward and arguably incorrect.

Namely, the value of 'initialized' is checked by
cpufreq_dbs_governor_init() and cpufreq_dbs_governor_exit() and
the results of those checks are passed (as the second argument) to
the ->init() and ->exit() callbacks in struct dbs_governor. Those
callbacks are only implemented by the ondemand and conservative
governors and ondemand doesn't use their second argument at all.
In turn, the conservative governor uses it to decide whether or not
to either register or unregister a transition notifier.

That whole mechanism is not only unnecessarily convoluted, but also
racy, because the 'initialized' field of struct cpufreq_governor is
updated in cpufreq_init_governor() and cpufreq_exit_governor() under
policy->rwsem which doesn't help if one of these functions is run
twice in parallel for different policies (which isn't impossible in
principle), for example.

Instead of it, add a proper usage counter to the conservative
governor and update it from cs_init() and cs_exit() which is
guaranteed to be non-racy, as those functions are only called
under gov_dbs_data_mutex which is global.

With that in place, drop the 'initialized' field from struct
cpufreq_governor as it is not used any more.

cpufreq: governor: Get rid of governor events

The design of the cpufreq governor API is not very straightforward,
as struct cpufreq_governor provides only one callback to be invoked
from different code paths for different purposes. The purpose it is
invoked for is determined by its second "event" argument, causing it
to act as a "callback multiplexer" of sorts.

Unfortunately, that leads to extra complexity in governors, some of
which implement the ->governor() callback as a switch statement
that simply checks the event argument and invokes a separate function
to handle that specific event.

That extra complexity can be eliminated by replacing the all-purpose
->governor() callback with a family of callbacks to carry out specific
governor operations: initialization and exit, start and stop and policy
limits updates. That also turns out to reduce the code size too, so
do it.

In addition to fields representing governor tunables, struct dbs_data
contains some fields needed for the management of objects of that
type. As it turns out, that part of struct dbs_data may be shared
with (future) governors that won't use the common code used by
"ondemand" and "conservative", so move it to a separate struct type
and modify the code using struct dbs_data to follow.

cpufreq: governor: Move per-CPU data to the common code

After previous changes there is only one piece of code in the
ondemand governor making references to per-CPU data structures,
but it can be easily modified to avoid doing that, so modify it
accordingly and move the definition of per-CPU data used by the
ondemand and conservative governors to the common code. Next,
change that code to access the per-CPU data structures directly
rather than via a governor callback.

This causes the ->get_cpu_cdbs governor callback to become
unnecessary, so drop it along with the macro and function
definitions related to it.

Finally, drop the definitions of struct od_cpu_dbs_info_s and
struct cs_cpu_dbs_info_s that aren't necessary any more.

cpufreq: governor: Make governor private data per-policy

Some fields in struct od_cpu_dbs_info_s and struct cs_cpu_dbs_info_s
are only used for a limited set of CPUs. Namely, if a policy is
shared between multiple CPUs, those fields will only be used for one
of them (policy->cpu). This means that they really are per-policy
rather than per-CPU and holding room for them in per-CPU data
structures is generally wasteful. Also moving those fields into
per-policy data structures will allow some significant simplifications
to be made going forward.

For this reason, introduce struct cs_policy_dbs_info and
struct od_policy_dbs_info to hold those fields. Define each of the
new structures as an extension of struct policy_dbs_info (such that
struct policy_dbs_info is embedded in each of them) and introduce
new ->alloc and ->free governor callbacks to allocate and free
those structures, respectively, such that ->alloc() will return
a pointer to the struct policy_dbs_info embedded in the allocated
data structure and ->free() will take that pointer as its argument.

With that, modify the code accessing the data fields in question
in per-CPU data objects to look for them in the new structures
via the struct policy_dbs_info pointer available to it and drop
them from struct od_cpu_dbs_info_s and struct cs_cpu_dbs_info_s.

cpufreq: ondemand: Rework the handling of powersave bias updates

The ondemand_powersave_bias_init() function used for resetting data
fields related to the powersave bias tunable of the ondemand governor
works by walking all of the online CPUs in the system and updating the
od_cpu_dbs_info_s structures for all of them.

However, if governor tunables are per policy, the update should not
touch the CPUs that are not associated with the given dbs_data.

Moreover, since the data fields in question are only ever used for
policy->cpu in each policy governed by ondemand, the update can be
limited to those specific CPUs.

Rework the code to take the above observations into account.
