Subject: [PATCH] sched/uclamp: Avoid setting cpu.uclamp.min bigger than cpu.uclamp.max

From: Xuewen Yan <xuewen.yan@...soc.com>

When setting cpu.uclamp.min/max in cgroup, there is no validating
like uclamp_validate() in __sched_setscheduler(). It may cause the
cpu.uclamp.min is bigger than cpu.uclamp.max.

Although there is protection in cpu_util_update_eff():
“eff[UCLAMP_MIN] = min(eff[UCLAMP_MIN], eff[UCLAMP_MAX])”, it's better
not to let it happen.

Judging the uclamp value before setting uclamp_min/max, avoid
the cpu.uclamp.min is bigger than cpu.uclamp.max.
