And why isn't it part of sugov_tunables? Its gonna be same for all policies
sharing tunables ..

To make its purpose clear, maybe name it as: sugov_should_reevaluate_freq(),
because we aren't updating the freq just yet, but deciding if we need to
reevaluate again or not.
As its going to be called from hotpath, maybe mark it as inline and let compiler
decide ?

Why not do all of above stuff as part of else block as well and move it before
the if {} block ?

Why skip local CPU completely ? And if we really want to do that, what about
something like for_each_cpu_and_not to kill the unnecessary if {} statement ?

To make sugov_tunables_alloc/free() symmetric to each other, should we move
above into sugov_tunables_alloc() ?

I didn't like the way we have mixed success and failure path here, just to save
a single line of code (unlock).
Over that it does things, that aren't symmetric anymore. For example, we have
called sugov_policy_alloc() without locks and are freeing it from within locks.

Why should we be doing this from START, which gets called a lot compared to
INIT/EXIT? This is something which should be moved to INIT IMHO.

Maybe we can try to take lock only if we are going to switch the freq, i.e. only
if sugov_limits is called for policy->min/max update?
i.e.
void __sugov_limits(policy, freq, relation)
{
mutex_lock(&sg_policy->work_lock);
__cpufreq_driver_target(policy, freq, relation);
mutex_unlock(&sg_policy->work_lock);
}
static int sugov_limits(struct cpufreq_policy *policy)
{
struct sugov_policy *sg_policy = policy->governor_data;
if (!policy->fast_switch_enabled) {
if (policy->max < policy->cur)
__sugov_limits(policy, policy->max, CPUFREQ_RELATION_H);
else if (policy->min > policy->cur)
__sugov_limits(policy, policy->min, CPUFREQ_RELATION_L);
}
sg_policy->need_freq_update = true;
return 0;
}
??
And maybe the same for current governors? (ofcourse in a separate patch, I can
do that if you want).
Also, why not just always do 'sg_policy->need_freq_update = true' from this
routine and remove everything else? It will be taken care of on next evaluation.
