commit e0423541477dfb684fbc6e6b5386054bc650f264 upstream.

The intel_pstate driver manages CPU capacity changes itself and it does
not need an update of the capacity of all CPUs in the system to be
carried out after registering a PD.

Moreover, in some configurations (for instance, an SMT-capable
hybrid x86 system booted with nosmt in the kernel command line) the
em_check_capacity_update() call at the end of em_dev_register_perf_domain()
always fails and reschedules itself to run once again in 1 s, so
effectively it runs in vain every 1 s forever.

To address this, introduce a new variant of em_dev_register_perf_domain(),
called em_dev_register_pd_no_update(), that does not invoke
em_check_capacity_update(), and make intel_pstate use it instead of the
original.

<content type='text'>
Add a function for updating the Energy Model for a CPU after its
capacity has changed, which subsequently will be used by the
intel_pstate driver.

An EM_PERF_DOMAIN_ARTIFICIAL check is added to em_recalc_and_update()
to prevent it from calling em_compute_costs() for an "artificial" perf
domain with a NULL cb parameter which would cause it to crash.

Move the check of the CPU capacity currently stored in the energy model
against the arch_scale_cpu_capacity() value to em_adjust_new_capacity()
so it will be done regardless of where the latter is called from.

This will be useful when a new em_adjust_new_capacity() caller is added
subsequently.

While at it, move the pd local variable declaration in
em_check_capacity_update() into the loop in which it is used.

No intentional functional impact.

When the device is of a non-CPU type, table[i].performance won't be
initialized in the previous em_init_performance(), resulting in division
by zero when calculating costs in em_compute_costs().

Since the 'cost' algorithm is only used for EAS energy efficiency
calculations and is currently not utilized by other device drivers, we
should add the _is_cpu_device(dev) check to prevent this division-by-zero
issue.

This is because the __rcu annotation for sparse is only applicable to
pointers that need rcu_dereference() or equivalent for protection, which
basically means pointers assigned with rcu_assign_pointer().

Make all of the above sparse warnings go away by cleaning up the usage
of __rcu and using rcu_dereference_protected() where applicable.

<content type='text'>
Notice that em_dev_register_perf_domain() and the functions called by it
do not update objects pointed to by its cb and cpus parameters, so the
const modifier can be added to them.

This allows the return value of cpumask_of() or a pointer to a
struct em_data_callback declared as const to be passed to
em_dev_register_perf_domain() directly without explicit type
casting which is rather handy.

No intentional functional impact.

The callback function of call_rcu() just calls kfree(), so use
kfree_rcu() instead of call_rcu() + callback function.

<title>PM: EM: Slightly reduce em_check_capacity_update() overhead</title>

Every iteration of the loop over all possible CPUs in
em_check_capacity_update() causes get_cpu_device() to be called twice
for the same CPU, once indirectly via em_cpu_get() and once directly.

Get rid of the indirect get_cpu_device() call by moving the direct
invocation of it earlier and using em_pd_get() instead of em_cpu_get()
to get a pd pointer for the dev one returned by it.

This also exposes the fact that dev is needed to get a pd, so the code
becomes somewhat easier to follow after it.

No functional impact.

The max_cap parameter is never used in em_adjust_new_capacity(), so
drop it.

<title>PM: EM: Move sched domains rebuild function from schedutil to EM</title>

Function sugov_eas_rebuild_sd() defined in the schedutil cpufreq governor
implements generic functionality that may be useful in other places.  In
particular, there is a plan to use it in the intel_pstate driver in the
future.

For this reason, move it from schedutil to the energy model code and
rename it to em_rebuild_sched_domains().

This also helps to get rid of some #ifdeffery in schedutil which is a
plus.

No intentional functional impact.
