Subject: cpufreq: governor: Avoid atomic operations in hot paths
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e4db2813d2e558b6b6bee464308678a57732b390;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

cpufreq: governor: Avoid atomic operations in hot paths

Rework the handling of work items by dbs_update_util_handler() and
dbs_work_handler() so the former (which is executed in scheduler
paths) only uses atomic operations when absolutely necessary.  That
is, when the policy is shared and dbs_update_util_handler() has
already decided that this is the time to queue up a work item.

In particular, this avoids the atomic ops entirely on platforms where
policy objects are never shared.
