[RFC 2/3] cpufreq: governor: Use minimum load QoS

From: Benjamin Gaignard <hidden>
Date: 2020-05-26 15:17:32
Also in: linux-media, linux-pm, lkml
Subsystem: cpu frequency scaling framework, the rest · Maintainers: "Rafael J. Wysocki", Viresh Kumar, Linus Torvalds

Make sure that the returned load is above the system-wide minimum
load QoS.
Devices could set this specific QoS to inform governors about their
need in terms of CPU load when computing it from idle time isn't accurate.
