7d5a9956af cpufreq: governor: Make governor private data per-policy
Some fields in struct od_cpu_dbs_info_s and struct cs_cpu_dbs_info_s
are only used for a limited set of CPUs.  Namely, if a policy is
shared between multiple CPUs, those fields will only be used for one
of them (policy->cpu).  This means that they really are per-policy
rather than per-CPU and holding room for them in per-CPU data
structures is generally wasteful.  Also moving those fields into
per-policy data structures will allow some significant simplifications
to be made going forward.

For this reason, introduce struct cs_policy_dbs_info and
struct od_policy_dbs_info to hold those fields.  Define each of the
new structures as an extension of struct policy_dbs_info (such that
struct policy_dbs_info is embedded in each of them) and introduce
new ->alloc and ->free governor callbacks to allocate and free
those structures, respectively, such that ->alloc() will return
a pointer to the struct policy_dbs_info embedded in the allocated
data structure and ->free() will take that pointer as its argument.

With that, modify the code accessing the data fields in question
in per-CPU data objects to look for them in the new structures
via the struct policy_dbs_info pointer available to it and drop
them from struct od_cpu_dbs_info_s and struct cs_cpu_dbs_info_s.

bc505475b8 cpufreq: governor: Rearrange governor data structures
The struct policy_dbs_info objects representing per-policy governor
data are not accessible directly from the corresponding policy
objects.  To access them, one has to get a pointer to the
struct cpu_dbs_info of policy->cpu and use the policy_dbs field of
that which isn't really straightforward.

To address that rearrange the governor data structures so the
governor_data pointer in struct cpufreq_policy will point to
struct policy_dbs_info (instead of struct dbs_data) and that will
contain a pointer to struct dbs_data.

ea59ee0dc9 cpufreq: governor: Drop the gov pointer from struct dbs_data
Since it is possible to obtain a pointer to struct dbs_governor
from a pointer to the struct governor embedded in it with the help
of container_of(), the additional gov pointer in struct dbs_data
isn't really necessary.

Drop that pointer and make the code using it reach the dbs_governor
object via policy->governor.

7bdad34d08 cpufreq: governor: Rename some data types and variables
The ondemand and conservative governors are represented by
struct common_dbs_data whose name doesn't reflect the purpose it
is used for, so rename it to struct dbs_governor and rename
variables of that type accordingly.

No functional changes.

9c5320c8ea cpufreq: AMD "frequency sensitivity feedback" powersave bias for ondemand governor
Future AMD processors, starting with Family 16h, can provide software
with feedback on how the workload may respond to frequency change --
memory-bound workloads will not benefit from higher frequency, where
as compute-bound workloads will. This patch enables this "frequency
sensitivity feedback" to aid the ondemand governor to make better
frequency change decisions by hooking into the powersave bias.
