cpufreq: intel_pstate: Adjust the .adjust_perf() driver callback
In some cases, the processor may not actually stick to the "desired" performance level programmed through the driver's .adjust_perf() callback and may go above it, which may not be desirable (for instance, there may be a UCLAMP_MAX limit set for the task currently running on the given CPU which should be respected). Address that by adjusting the .adjust_perf() callback to take an additional argument, max_perf, representing the maximum allowed performance level of the CPU and update the intel_pstate driver to take that argument into account as appropriate. Accordingly, adjust cpufreq_driver_adjust_perf() and the other existing user of .adjust_perf(), which is the amd-pstate driver (but the behavior of that driver is not changed). While at it, also update the cpufreq_driver_adjust_perf() documentation to reflect this change and some previous code changes that have not been taken into account in it. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
