The scmi-cpufreq driver calls the arch_set_freq_scale() callback on
frequency changes to provide scale-invariant load-tracking signals to
the scheduler. However, in the slow path, it does so while specifying
the current and max frequencies in different units, hence resulting in a
broken freq_scale factor.

Fix this by passing all frequencies in KHz, as stored in the CPUFreq
frequency table.

cpuinfo_cur_freq gets current CPU frequency as detected by hardware
while scaling_cur_freq last known CPU frequency. Some platforms may not
allow checking the CPU frequency of an offline CPU or the associated
resources may have been released via cpufreq_exit when the CPU gets
offlined, in which case the policy would have been invalidated already.
If we attempt to get current frequency from the hardware, it may result
in hang or crash.

For example on Juno, I see:

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000188
[0000000000000188] pgd=0000000000000000

So fix the issue by checking if the policy is invalid early in
__cpufreq_get before attempting to get the current frequency.

<id>urn:sha1:1690d8bb91e370ab772062b79bd434ce815c4729</id>
<content type='text'>
Since the commit 2a4eb7358aba "OPP: Don't remove dynamic OPPs from
_dev_pm_opp_remove_table()", dynamically created OPP aren't
automatically removed anymore by dev_pm_opp_cpumask_remove_table(). This
affects the scpi and scmi cpufreq drivers which no longer free OPPs on
failures or on invocations of the policy-&gt;exit() callback.

Create a generic OPP helper dev_pm_opp_remove_all_dynamic() which can be
called from these drivers instead of dev_pm_opp_cpumask_remove_table().

In dev_pm_opp_remove_all_dynamic(), we need to make sure that the
opp_list isn't getting accessed simultaneously from other parts of the
OPP core while the helper is freeing dynamic OPPs, i.e. we can't drop
the opp_table-&gt;lock while traversing through the OPP list. And to
accomplish that, this patch also creates _opp_kref_release_unlocked()
which can be called from this new helper with the opp_table lock already
held.

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
 "Notable changes:

   - Mitigations for Spectre v2 on some Freescale (NXP) CPUs.

   - A large series adding support for pass-through of Nvidia V100 GPUs
     to guests on Power9.

   - Another large series to enable hardware assistance for TLB table
     walk on MPC8xx CPUs.

   - Some preparatory changes to our DMA code, to make way for further
     cleanups from Christoph.

   - Several fixes for our Transactional Memory handling discovered by
     fuzzing the signal return path.

   - Support for generating our system call table(s) from a text file
     like other architectures.

   - A fix to our page fault handler so that instead of generating a
     WARN_ON_ONCE, user accesses of kernel addresses instead print a
     ratelimited and appropriately scary warning.

   - A cosmetic change to make our unhandled page fault messages more
     similar to other arches and also more compact and informative.

   - Freescale updates from Scott:
       "Highlights include elimination of legacy clock bindings use from
        dts files, an 83xx watchdog handler, fixes to old dts interrupt
        errors, and some minor cleanup."

  And many clean-ups, reworks and minor fixes etc.

<id>urn:sha1:531b5c9f5cd05ead53324f419b32685a22eebe8b</id>
<content type='text'>
Energy Aware Scheduling (EAS) is designed with the assumption that
frequencies of CPUs follow their utilization value. When using a CPUFreq
governor other than schedutil, the chances of this assumption being true
are small, if any. When schedutil is being used, EAS' predictions are at
least consistent with the frequency requests. Although those requests
have no guarantees to be honored by the hardware, they should at least
guide DVFS in the right direction and provide some hope in regards to the
EAS model being accurate.

To make sure EAS is only used in a sane configuration, create a strong
dependency on schedutil being used. Since having sugov compiled-in does
not provide that guarantee, make CPUFreq call a scheduler function on
governor changes hence letting it rebuild the scheduling domains, check
the governors of the online CPUs, and enable/disable EAS accordingly.
