cpufreq: interactive: fix race on cpufreq TRANSITION notifier

The cpufreq TRANSTION notifier callback does not check the
governor_enabled state on affected CPUS, which will case
kernel panic in update_load because the policy object maybe
NULL or invalid when governor_enabled is false.

cpufreq: interactive: resched timer if max freq raised

When the policy max freq is raised, and before the timer is
rescheduled in idle callback, the cpu freq may stuck at a
lower freq.

The target_freq shall be updated too, else on a high load
situation, the new_freq is always equal to target_freq and
which will cause freq stuck at a lower freq too.

Reschedule the timer on gov limits callback.

[PATCH, v9 1/3] hrtimer: introduce effective timer slack

task_get_effective_timer_slack() returns timer slack value to be used
to configure per-task timers. It can be equal or higher than task's
timer slack value.

For now task_get_effective_timer_slack() returns timer_slack_ns of the
task. Timer slack cgroup controller will implement a bit more
sophisticated logic.

[PATCH, v9 2/3] hrtimer: implement PR_GET_EFFECTIVE_TIMERSLACK

slack value.

[PATCH, v9 3/3] cgroups: introduce timer slack controller

Every task_struct has timer_slack_ns value. This value uses to round up
poll() and select() timeout values. This feature can be useful in
mobile environment where combined wakeups are desired.

Originally, prctl() was the only way to change timer slack value of
a process. So you was not able change timer slack value of another
process.

cgroup subsys "timer_slack" implements timer slack controller. It
provides a way to set minimal timer slack value for a group of tasks.
If a task belongs to a cgroup with minimal timer slack value higher than
task's value, cgroup's value will be applied.

Timer slack controller allows to implement setting timer slack value of
a process based on a policy. For example, you can create foreground and
background cgroups and move tasks between them based on system state.
