cpufreq: Use dedicated high-priority workqueues

In the process of scaling CPU frequencies, cpufreq and the APIS is
calls may hold resources that will prevent threads critical for
system stability from running.

Specifically, thermal-mitigation software may need to respond
quickly to high-temperature conditions and throttle the CPU speed
in an effort to cool down. If the system is already in the middle
of a CPU frequency switch being executed on behalf of a cpufreq
governor, thermal mitigation will be blocked until the scaling
action has completed. If the system is under heave load of medium
or high-priority threads, this may take a long while and the system
may potentially surpass thermal limits in the meantime.

Resolve this by using high priority workqueues for all ondemand
and conservative governor scaling operations.  This will allow them
to complete promptly and release their hold on resources necessary
for maintaining system stability.

cpufreq: ondemand: Fix store_powersave_bias() race with hotplug

store_powersave_bias() assumes that CPUs will not be taken offline or
brought online while executing its for_each_online_cpu() loops. Fix
this race by blocking hotplug while executing in these loop.

cpufreq: ondemand: Fix locking in store_powersave_bias

store_powersave_bias() assumes that dbs_info->cur_policy will
not change while it is executing. If it does, memory corruption
can potentially result. Fix this by acquiring the dbs_lock.

Most noticeably, this resolves timer-related list corruptions
encountered when queue_delayed_work_on() is called from within
store_powersave_bias() while a CPU is being hotplugged in and
out.

cpufreq: ondemand: change freq sync code to use per-CPU kthreads

The migration notifier may run in a context where it is not safe to
enqueue a work item. For example:

(__queue_work+0x1f4/0x40c)
(queue_work_on+0x34/0x44)
(dbs_migration_notify+0x2c/0x40)
(notifier_call_chain+0x38/0x68)
(__atomic_notifier_call_chain+0x34/0x44)
(atomic_notifier_call_chain+0x14/0x18)
(try_to_wake_up+0x350/0x36c)
(autoremove_wake_function+0xc/0x34)
(__wake_up_common+0x48/0x7c)
(__wake_up+0x3c/0x50)
(trustee_thread+0x1d0/0x528)
(kthread+0x80/0x8c)

The trustee code already takes a lock internal to the workqueue
implementation and is not expecting a wake up to come around and
enter the workqueue code again, where the same lock will be needed.

Instead of relying on a workqueue, use a per-CPU kthread to do
the frequency syncing.

cpufreq: ondemand: Fix locking issue in store_powersave_bias

store_powersave_bias takes timer_mutex before calling dbs_timer_exit
which tries to cancel the delayed work do_dbs_timer which in turn
tries to take the same lock. This can cause a lock recursion under
the race condition where can cancel_delayed_work_sync is called
when the work has already started executing.

This can be avoided by taking that lock after calling
dbs_timer_exit.

cpufreq: ondemand: Disable freq sync feature in store_powersave_bias

Turn off frequency synchronization of CPUs on thread migrations
when powersave bias is enabled. This is done to prevent re-arming
of the dbs timer work (which is cancelled by store_powersave_bias)
by the sync_thread.

cpufreq: ondemand: Boost CPU frequency only for touch input

Originally CPU frequency were boosted for any input event.
In some case, sensor sends a lot of input event, which
keep CPU in high frequency.  CPU frequency only need to
be boosted when real user interaction happens.

cpufreq: ondemand: add input_boost interface

Currently Ondemand governor handles any input event
like touch by scaling the CPU frequency to maximum
available on the target.

This change adds a new sysfs interface "input_boost"
whereby the CPU will scale to this frequency on input events.
The value of this sysfs is user defined so input events
can now be handled by scaling the CPU to lower frequencies
than target max.

cpufreq: ondemand: Fix update_sampling_rate race with hotplug

update_sampling_rate has a for loop which goes through each
online cpu and possibly queue up the ondemand work for them.
But while doing this it doesnt take any hotplug lock which
could potentially cause a race condition where ondemand work
is queued after the hotplug code (which sets the policy to NULL)
in the governor has cancelled any pending work. This could cause
a crash while trying to access the NULL policy in dbs_check_cpu.

Protecting the for_each_online_cpu loop with get_online_cpus()
and put_online_cpus().

cpufreq: ondemand: Fix hotplug deadlock with store_powersave_bias

cpufreq: Avoid using smp_processor_id() in preemptible context

Even though this work item runs on only one cpu at a time (due to
queue_work_on()) it is possible for the work item to be preempted
and so use of smp_processor_id() is illegal.

The intent of the code is to determine which CPU this work item
is running on, which we can easily do by passing that information
in a wrapper struct around the work struct. Do this so we avoid
this problem.
