    cpufreq: respect the min/max settings from user space · 619c144c
    Vince Hsu 提交于
    When the user space tries to set scaling_(max|min)_freq through
    sysfs, the cpufreq_set_policy() asks other driver's opinions
    for the max/min frequencies. Some device drivers, like Tegra
    CPU EDP which is not upstreamed yet though, may constrain the
    CPU maximum frequency dynamically because of board design.
    So if the user space access happens and some driver is capping
    the cpu frequency at the same time, the user_policy->(max|min)
    is overridden by the capped value, and that's not expected by
    the user space. And if the user space is not invoked again,
    the CPU will always be capped by the user_policy->(max|min)
    even no drivers limit the CPU frequency any more.
    
    This patch preserves the user specified min/max settings, so that
    every time the cpufreq policy is updated, the new max/min can
    be re-evaluated correctly based on the user's expection and
    the present device drivers' status.
