Subject: [Resend][PATCH V2] cpufreq: intel_pstate: allow trace in passive mode

Allow use of the trace_pstate_sample trace function
when the intel_pstate driver is in passive mode.
Since the core_busy and scaled_busy fields are not
used, and it might be desirable to know which path
through the driver was used, either intel_cpufreq_target
or intel_cpufreq_fast_switch, re-task the core_busy
field as a flag indicator.

The user can then use the intel_pstate_tracer.py utility
to summarize and plot the trace.

In Passive mode the driver is only called if there is
a need to change the target frequency, so durations
(time gaps between calls) can be very very long. The user
needs to understand, and not be confused by, this limitation.

V2: prepare for resend. Rebase to current kernel, 4.15-rc3.
