[PATCH v6 1/5] cpufreq: Add a cpufreq pressure feedback for the scheduler

Tue Mar 26 02:16:12 PDT 2024


Provide to the scheduler a feedback about the temporary max available
capacity. Unlike arch_update_thermal_pressure, this doesn't need to be
filtered as the pressure will happen for dozens ms or more.
