Linus Torvalds ebe64824e9 Power management fixes for v4.11-rc4
- Make intel_pstate use one set of global P-state limits in the
    active mode regardless of the scaling_governor settings for
    individual CPUs instead of switching back and forth between two
    of them in a way that is hard to control (Rafael Wysocki).
 
  - Drop a useless function from intel_pstate to prevent it from
    modifying the maximum supported frequency value unexpectedly
    which may confuse the cpufreq core (Rafael Wysocki).
 
  - Fix the cpufreq core to restore policy limits on CPU online so
    that the limits are not reset over system suspend/resume, among
    other things (Viresh Kumar).
 
  - Fix the initialization of the schedutil cpufreq governor to
    make the IO-wait boosting mechanism in it actually work on
    systems with one CPU per cpufreq policy (Rafael Wysocki).
 
  - Add a sanity check to the cpuidle core to prevent crashes from
    happening if the architecture code initialization fails to set
    up things as expected (Vaidyanathan Srinivasan).

Pull power management fixes from Rafael Wysocki:
 "One of these is an intel_pstate regression fix and it is not a small
  change, but it mostly removes code that shouldn't be there. That code
  was acquired by mistake and has been a source of constant pain since
  then, so the time has come to get rid of it finally. We have not seen
  problems with this change in the lab, so fingers crossed.

  The rest is more usual: one more intel_pstate commit removing useless
  code, a cpufreq core fix to make it restore policy limits on CPU
  online (which prevents the limits from being reset over system
  suspend/resume), a schedutil cpufreq governor initialization fix to
  make it actually work as advertised on all systems and an extra sanity
  check in the cpuidle core to prevent crashes from happening if the
  arch code messes things up.

  Specifics:

   - Make intel_pstate use one set of global P-state limits in the
     active mode regardless of the scaling_governor settings for
     individual CPUs instead of switching back and forth between two of
     them in a way that is hard to control (Rafael Wysocki).

   - Drop a useless function from intel_pstate to prevent it from
     modifying the maximum supported frequency value unexpectedly which
     may confuse the cpufreq core (Rafael Wysocki).

   - Fix the cpufreq core to restore policy limits on CPU online so that
     the limits are not reset over system suspend/resume, among other
     things (Viresh Kumar).

   - Fix the initialization of the schedutil cpufreq governor to make
     the IO-wait boosting mechanism in it actually work on systems with
     one CPU per cpufreq policy (Rafael Wysocki).

   - Add a sanity check to the cpuidle core to prevent crashes from
     happening if the architecture code initialization fails to set up
     things as expected (Vaidyanathan Srinivasan)"
