Memlat and bwmon are meant to cover to different use cases. Though
they have a big overlap on when they get triggered bwmon is specifically
meant to address cases where band-width aggregation is required (meaning
if other peripherals already have a avg bw vote on active LLCC/DDR, the
vote from bwmon would be an additional request on top of that). However
to make use of this we should vote for avg-kbps in addition to peak from
icc-bwmon driver which we don't currently do (Shiv was planning on
sending a fix for it).
