Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 5/7] sched/fair: Massively simplify util_fits_cpu()
Currently, there's no way to distinguish the difference between 1) a CPU
that is actually maxed out at its highest frequency, or 2) one that is
throttled because of UCLAMP_MAX, since both present util_avg values of
1024. This is problematic because when we try to pick a CPU for a task
to run, we would like to give 2) a chance, or at least prefer 2) to 1).
Current upstream now gives all 0 spare capacity CPUs a chance to
consider queuing more tasks because there's a chance that 0 spare
capacity is due to UCLAMP_MAX. However, this creates further problems
because energy calculations are now bogus when spare capacity is already
0, and tasks tend to pile up on one CPU.
Fix by using util_avg_uclamp for util_fits_cpu(). This way, case 1) will
still keep its utilization at 1024 whereas 2) shows spare capacities if
the sum of util_avg_uclamp values is still under the CPU capacity.
Under sum aggregation, checking whether a task fits a CPU becomes much
simpler. We simply do fits_capacity() and there does not need to be all
kinds of code checking all corner cases for uclamp. This means
util_fits_cpu() returns to true and false instead of tri-state,
simplifying a huge amount of code.
