[PATCH v2 8/8] cpufreq: intel_pstate: Use CPPC to get max performance

From: Srinivas Pandruvada
Date: Thu Sep 01 2016 - 17:13:28 EST


This change uses acpi cppc_lib interface to get CPPC performance limits.
Once CPPC limits of all online cores are read, first check if there is
difference in max performance. If there is a difference, then the
scheduler interface is called to update per cpu priority. After updating
priority of all current cpus, the itmt feature is enabled.
