Subject: [tip: sched/urgent] Revert "sched/cpufreq: Rework schedutil governor
 performance estimation" and dependent commits

Revert "sched/cpufreq: Rework schedutil governor performance estimation" and dependent commits

This reverts the following commits:

  b3edde44e5d450 ("cpufreq/schedutil: Use a fixed reference frequency")
  f12560779f9d73 ("sched/cpufreq: Rework iowait boost")
  9c0b4bb7f6303c ("sched/cpufreq: Rework schedutil governor performance estimation")

Because Linus reported a bad performance regression with the
sched_util governor, that increased the time his empty
kernel build took from 22 to 44 seconds (and can be similarly
measured in full builds as well) - and bisected it back to 9c0b4bb7f6303c.

Until we have a proper fix, revert the broken commit and its
dependent commits.
