block: row: Re-design urgent request notification mechanism

When ROW scheduler reports to the block layer that there is an urgent
request pending, the device driver may decide to stop the transmission
of the current request in order to handle the urgent one. This is done
in order to reduce the latency of an urgent request. For example:
long WRITE may be stopped to handle an urgent READ.

This patch updates the ROW URGENT notification policy to apply with the
below:

- Don't notify URGENT if there is an un-completed URGENT request in driver
- After notifying that URGENT request is present, the next request
  dispatched is the URGENT one.
- At every given moment only 1 request can be marked as URGENT.
  Independent of it's location (driver or scheduler)

Other changes to URGENT policy:
- Only READ queues are allowed to notify of an URGENT request pending.

CR fix:
If a pending urgent request (A) gets merged with another request (B)
A is removed from scheduler queue but is not removed from
rd->pending_urgent_rq.

block: urgent request: remove unnecessary urgent marking

An urgent request is marked by the scheduler in rq->cmd_flags with the
REQ_URGENT flag. There is no need to add an additional marking by
the block layer.

cpufreq: interactive: keep freezer happy when not current governor

Fix a problem where the hung task mechanism was deeming the interactive
clock boost thread as hung.  This was because the thread is created at
module init but never run/woken up until needed.  If the governor is not
being used this can be forever.  To workaround this explicitly wake up
the thread once all the necessary data structures are initialized.  The
latter required some minor code shuffle.

cpufreq: interactive: always limit initial speed bump to hispeed

First bump speed up to hispeed_freq whenever the current speed is below
hispeed_freq, instead of only when the current speed is the minimum speed.
The previous code made it too difficult to use hispeed_freq as a common
intermediate speed on systems that frequently run at speeds between
minimum and hispeed_freq.

cpufreq: interactive: run at fraction of hispeed_freq when load is low

When load is below go_hispeed_load, apply the percentage of CPU load to
a max frequency of hispeed_freq instead of the max speed.  This avoids
jumping too quickly to hispeed_freq when it is a relatively low
percentage of max speed.  This also allows go_hispeed_load to be set to
a high percentage relative to hispeed_freq (as a percentage of max speed,
again useful when hispeed_freq is a low fraction of max speed), to cap
larger loads at hispeed_freq.  For example, a load of 60% will typically
move to 60% of hispeed_freq, not 60% of max speed.  This causes the
governor to apply two different speed caps, depending on whether load is
below or above go_hispeed_load.

Also fix the type of hispeed_freq, which was u64, to match other
speed data types (and avoid overhead and allow division).

cpufreq: interactive: use deferrable timer by default

Avoid wakeups only to handle the governor timer when the system is otherwise
idle.

For platforms where the power cost of remaining in idle at higher CPU
speed may outweigh the cost of a governor wakeup from idle to lower the speed,
set parameter cpufreq_interactive.governidle=1.

cpufreq: interactive: kick timer on idle exit past expiry

The deferrable timer list isn't checked on all idle exits, such as when
hi-res timers expire or ISRs schedule workers.  If the idle loop is
exited and it's past time to run the governor load polling timer,
run it immediately.  This ensures we handle load spikes caused by actvity
that does not run the normal timer list.

Rename the field that timestamps the "time_in_idle" value to be more
accurate.

Add a target_load attribute that specifies how aggressively the governor is

as the current actual speed (may be higher than target speed on SMP) times
the CPU load (as a fraction) divided by target load (fraction).

the next higher speed rather than next lower speed.

cpufreq: interactive: allow arbitrary speed / target load mappings

Accept a string of target loads and speeds at which to apply the
target loads, per the documentation update in this patch.  For example,
"85 1000000:90 1700000:99" targets CPU load 85% below speed 1GHz,  90%
at or above 1GHz, until 1.7GHz and above, at which load 99% is targeted.

Attempt to avoid oscillations by evaluating the current speed
weighted by current load against each new choice of speed, choosing a
higher speed if the current load requires a higher speed.

cpufreq: interactive: add timer slack to limit idle at speed > min

Always use deferrable timer for load sampling.

Set a non-deferrable timer to an additional slack time to allow prior to
waking up from idle to drop speed when not at minimum speed.  Slack value
-1 avoids wakeups to drop speed.  Default is 80ms.

Remove the governidle module param and its timer management in idle.  For
platforms on which holding speed above mimum in idle costs power, use the
new timer slack to select how long to wait before waking up to drop speed.
