Looks like you only introduce uclamped util_est functions in 3/6. It's
easy to grasp when data changes go together with new functions. Maybe
introduce a specific util_est patch before 3/6 "Use util biases for
utilization and frequency"?

By 'above' you're referring to the update in enqueue_entity() ->
update_load_avg(..., DO_ATTACH) -> attach_entity_load_avg() ->
cfs_rq_util_change() ?

I assume you won't have the problem of having to add a
cpufreq_update_util(rq, 0) call after the util_bias enqueue or dequeue
with "[PATCH v4] sched: Consolidate cpufreq updates"
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20240516204802.846520-1-qyousef@layalina.io
anymore?

You could pass a `struct rq *rq` here? I assume this code is already
there to include rt-tasks (via per-entity load-tracking in rt class)?

This is done to not cap a task util_avg > 1024 in case the task has
default uclamp_max?

IMHO,

update_util_bias(struct sched_avg *avg, struct sched_entity *se)

    if (!entity_is_task(se))
        return;

    ...

would be easier to read.

Maybe enqueue_util_bias() and dequeue_util_bias() since there is the
related update_util_bias()? I know that there is util_est_enqueue() but
util_est also has util_est_update().
