Subject: [cpufreq] 909c0e9cc1: fwq.fwq.med 210.0% improvement

Greeting,

FYI, we noticed a 210.0% improvement of fwq.fwq.med due to commit:


commit: 909c0e9cc11ba39fa5a660583b25c2431cf54deb ("cpufreq: intel_pstate: Use passive mode by default without HWP")
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm.git intel_pstate-passive

in testcase: fwq
on test machine: 16 threads Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU D-1541 @ 2.10GHz with 48G memory
with following parameters:

	nr_task: 100%
	samples: 100000ss
	iterations: 18x
	cpufreq_governor: powersave
	ucode: 0x7000019






Details are as below:
