The modularity of cpufreq_stats is quite problematic. First off, the usage of policy notifiers for the initialization and cleanup in the cpufreq_stats module is inherently racy with respect to CPU offline/online and the initialization and cleanup of the cpufreq driver. Second, fast frequency switching (used by the schedutil governor) cannot be enabled if any transition notifiers are registered, so if the cpufreq_stats module (that registers a transition notifier for updating transition statistics) is loaded, the schedutil governor cannot use fast frequency switching. On the other hand, allowing cpufreq_stats to be built as a module doesn't really add much value. Arguably, there's not much reason for that code to be modular at all. For the above reasons, make the cpufreq stats code non-modular, modify the core to invoke functions provided by that code directly and drop the notifiers from it. Make the stats sysfs attributes appear empty if fast frequency switching is enabled as the statistics will not be updated in that case anyway (and returning -EBUSY from those attributes breaks powertop). While at it, clean up Kconfig help for the CPU_FREQ_STAT and CPU_FREQ_STAT_DETAILS options. Signed-off-by: NRafael J.
