Given that cpu_util() is the base function should this comment move
there?

AFAICT the @boost argument is always a constant (0 or 1). Would it not
make more sense to simply add:

unsigned long cpu_util_cfs_boost(int cpu)
{
	return cpu_util(cpu, NULL, -1, 1);
}

and use that in the few sites that actually need it?
