cpufreq: conservative: Take limits changes into account properly
If the policy limits change between invocations of cs_dbs_update(), the requested frequency value stored in dbs_info may not be updated and the function may use a stale value of it next time. Moreover, if idle periods are takem into account by cs_dbs_update(), the requested frequency value stored in dbs_info may be below the min policy limit, which is incorrect. To fix these problems, always update the requested frequency value in dbs_info along with the local copy of it when the previous requested frequency is beyond the policy limits and avoid decreasing the requested frequency below the min policy limit when taking idle periods into account. Fixes: abb6627910a1 (cpufreq: conservative: Fix next frequency selection) Fixes: 00bfe05889e9 (cpufreq: conservative: Decrease frequency faster for deferred updates) Reported-by: Waldemar Rymarkiewicz <waldemarx.rymarkiewicz@intel.com> Cc: All applicable <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
