Subject: [RFC PATCH 6/6] cpufreq: add kvm-cpufreq driver
Introduce a virtualized cpufreq driver for guest kernels to improve
performance and power of workloads within VMs.
This driver does two main things:
1. Sends utilization of vCPUs as a hint to the host. The host uses the
hint to schedule the vCPU threads and decide physical CPU frequency.
2. If a VM does not support a virtualized FIE(like AMUs), it uses
hypercalls to update the guest's frequency scaling factor periodically
by querying the host CPU frequency. This enables accurate
Per-Entity Load Tracking for tasks running in the guest.
Note that because the host already employs a rate_limit_us, we set the
transition_delay_us of the cpufreq policy to a miniscule value(1)
to avoid any additional delays between when the runqueue's util change
and a frequency response on the host.
