Version 0.2 - improved

Changelog:

       - added tuneables to be able to adjust values on early suspend (screen off) via sysfs instead
         of using only hardcoded defaults
       - modified hotplug implementation to be able to tune threshold range per core indepentently
         and to be able to manually turn cores offline

         for this functions following new tuneables were indroduced:

         sampling_rate_sleep_multiplier -> sampling rate multiplier on early suspend (possible values 1 or 2, default: 2)
         up_threshold_sleep             -> up threshold on early suspend (possible range from above 'down_threshold_sleep' up to 100, default: 90)
         down_threshold_sleep           -> down threshold on early suspend (possible range from 11 to 'under up_threshold_sleep', default: 44)
         smooth_up_sleep                -> smooth up scaling on early suspend (possible range from 1 to 100, default: 100)
         up_threshold_hotplug1          -> hotplug threshold for cpu1 (0 disable core1, possible range from 'down_threshold' up to 100, default: 68)
         up_threshold_hotplug2          -> hotplug threshold for cpu2 (0 disable core2, possible range from 'down_threshold' up to 100, default: 68)
         up_threshold_hotplug3          -> hotplug threshold for cpu3 (0 disable core3, possible range from 'down_threshold' up to 100, default: 68)
         down_threshold_hotplug1        -> hotplug threshold for cpu1 (possible range from 11 to under 'up_threshold', default: 55)
         down_threshold_hotplug2        -> hotplug threshold for cpu2 (possible range from 11 to under 'up_threshold', default: 55)
         down_threshold_hotplug3        -> hotplug threshold for cpu3 (possible range from 11 to under 'up_threshold', default: 55)

Version 0.3 - more improvements

Changelog:

       - added tuneable 'hotplug_sleep' to be able to turn cores offline only on early suspend (screen off) via sysfs
         possible values: 0 do not touch hotplug-settings on early suspend, values 1, 2 or 3 are equivalent to
         cores which should be online at early suspend
       - modified scaling frequency table to match 'overclock' freqencies to max 1600 mhz
       - fixed black screen of dead problem in hotplug logic due to missing mutexing on 3-core and 2-core settings
       - code cleaning and documentation
Version 0.4 - limits

Changelog:

      - added 'soft'-freqency-limit. the term 'soft' means here that this is unfortuneately not a hard limit. a hard limit is only possible with
        cpufreq driver which is the freqency 'giver' the governor is only the 'consultant'. So now the governor will scale up to only the given up
        limit on higher system load but if the cpufreq driver 'wants' to go above that limit the freqency will go up there. u can see this for
        example with touchboost or wake up freqencies (1000 and 800 mhz) where the governor obviously will be 'bypassed' by the cpufreq driver.
        but nevertheless this soft-limit will now reduce the use of freqencies higer than given limit and therefore it will reduce power consumption.

        for this function following new tuneables were indroduced:

        freq_limit_sleep               -> limit freqency on early suspend (possible values 0 disable limit, 200-1600, default: 0)
        freq_limit                     -> limit freqency on awake (possible values 0 disable limit, 200-1600, default: 0)

      - added scaling frequencies to frequency tables for a faster up/down scaling. This should bring more performance but on the other hand it
        can be of course a little bit more power consumptive.

        for this function following new tuneables were indroduced:

        fast_scaling                   -> fast scaling on awake (possible values 0 disable or 1 enable, default: 0)
        fast_scaling_sleep (sysfs)     -> fast scaling on early suspend (possible values 0 disable or 1 enable, default: 0)

      - added tuneable 'freq_step_sleep' for setting the freq step at early suspend (possible values same as freq_step 0 to 100, default 5)
      - added DEF_FREQ_STEP and IGNORE_NICE macros
      - changed downscaling cpufreq relation to the 'lower way'
      - code/documentation cleaning
Version 0.5 - performance and fixes

Changelog:

    - completely reworked fast scaling functionality. now using a 'line jump' logic instead of fixed freq 'colums'.
      fast scaling now in 4 steps and 2 modes possible (mode 1: only fast scaling up and mode2: fast scaling up/down)
    - added support for 'Dynamic Screen Frequency Scaling' (original implementation into zzmoove governor highly improved by Yank555)
      originated by AndreiLux more info: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=38499071&postcount=3

      originated by DerTeufel1980: https://github.com/DerTeufel/android_kernel_samsung_smdk4412/commit/6bab622344c548be853db19adf28c3917896f0a0
    - added the possibility to use sampling down momentum or conservative 'down skip' method.
    - increased possible max sampling rate sleep multiplier to 4 and sampling down factor to 100000
      accordingly to sampling down momentum implementation.
    - added frequency search limit for more efficient frequency searching in scaling 'table' and for improving
      frequency 'hard' and 'soft' limit handling.
    - added cpu idle exit time handling like it is in lulzactive
      again work from ktoonsez : https://github.com/ktoonsez/KT747-JB/commit/a5931bee6ea9e69f386a340229745da6f2443b78
      description in lulzactive governor:
      https://github.com/ktoonsez/KT747-JB/blob/a5931bee6ea9e69f386a340229745da6f2443b78/drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq_lulzactive.c
    - fixed a little scaling step mistake and added overclocking frequencies up to 1800 mhz in scaling frequency 'tables'.
    - fixed possible freezes during start/stop/reload of governor and frequency limit change.
    - fixed hotplugging logic at online core 0+3 or 0+2 situations and improved hotplugging in general by
      removing mutex locks and skipping hotplugging when it is not needed.
    - added possibility to disable hotplugging (that's a debugging relict but i thought maybe someone will find that usefull so i didn't remove it)
    - try to fix lags when coming from suspend if hotplug limitation at sleep was active by enabling all offline cores during resume.
    - code cleaning and documentation.

      for this functions following new tuneables were indroduced:

      Early Demand:
      -------------
      early_demand          -> switch to enable/disable early demand functionality (possible values 0 disable or 1 enable, default: 0)
      grad_up_threshold     -> scale up frequency if the load goes up in one step of grad up value (possible range from 11 to 100, default 50)
                               little example for understanding: when the load rises up in one big 50% step then the
                               frequency will be scaled up immediately instead of wating till up_threshold is reached.

      Fast Scaling (improved):
      ------------------------
      Fast scaling has now 8 levels which at the same time have 2 modes included. Values from 1-4 equals to scaling jumps in the frequency table
      and uses the Fast Scaling up but normal scaling down mode. Values from 5-8 equals to 1-4 scaling jumps but uses the fast scaling up and fast
      scaling down mode.

      Hotplugging switch:
      -------------------
      disable_hotplug       -> switch to enable/disable hotplugging (possible values are any value above 0 to disable hotplugging and 0 to
                               enable it, default 0)

      Sampling Down Factor and Sampling Down Momentum:
      ------------------------------------------------
      Description: From the original author of ondemand_sampling_factor David Niemi:
      'This improves performance by reducing the overhead of load evaluation and helping the CPU stay
      at its top speed when truly busy, rather than shifting back and forth in speed.'

      And that 'Sampling Down Momentum' function from stratosk does this dynamicly now! ;)

      sampling_down_max_momentum          -> max sampling down factor which should be set by momentum (0 disable momentum, possible range from
                                             sampling_down_factor up to MAX_SAMPLING_DOWN_FACTOR, default 0 disabled)
      sampling_down_momentum_sensitivity  -> how fast the sampling down factor should be switched (possible values from 1 to 500, default 50)
      sampling_down_factor                -> depending on which mode is active the factor for sampling rate multiplier which influences the whole
                                             sampling rate or the value for stock 'down skip' functionality which influences only the down scaling
                                             mechanism (possible values are from 1 to MAX_SMPLING_DOWN_FACTOR, default 1 disabled)

      Original conservative 'down skip' or 'stock' method can be enabled by setting the momentum tuneable to 0. so if momentum is inactive there will
      be a fallback to the stock method. as the name 'down skip' says this method works 'slightly' different from the ondemand stock sampling down method
      (on which momentum was based on). It just skips the scaling down code for the given samples. if u want to completely disable the sampling down
      functionality u can achieve this by setting sampling down factor to 1. so concluded: setting sampling_down_momentum = 0 and sampling_down_factor = 1
      will disable sampling down completely (that is also the governor default setting)

      Dynamic Screen Frequency Scaling:
      --------------------------------
      Dynamicly switches the screen frequency to 40hz or 60hz depending on cpu scaling and hotplug settings.
      For compiling and enabling this functionality u have to do some more modification to the kernel sources, please take a look at AndreiLux Perseus
      repository and there at following commit: https://github.com/AndreiLux/Perseus-S3/commit/3476799587d93189a091ba1db26a36603ee43519
      After adding this patch u can enable the feature by setting 'CPU_FREQ_LCD_FREQ_DFS=y' in your kernel config and if u want to check if it is
      really working at runtime u can also enable the accounting which AndreiLux added by setting LCD_FREQ_SWITCH_ACCOUNTING=y in the kernel config.
      If all goes well and u have the DFS up and running u can use following tuneables to do some screen magic:
      (thx to Yank555 for highly extend and improving this)

      lcdfreq_enable                     -> to enable/disable LCDFreq scaling (possible values 0 disable or 1 enable, default: 0)
      lcdfreq_kick_in_down_delay         -> the amount of samples to wait below the threshold frequency before entering low display frequency mode (40hz)
      lcdfreq_kick_in_up_delay           -> the amount of samples to wait over the threshold frequency before entering high display frequency mode (60hz)
      lcdfreq_kick_in_freq               -> the frequency threshold - below this cpu frequency the low display frequency will be active
      lcdfreq_kick_in_cores              -> the number of cores which should be online before switching will be active. (also useable in combination
                                            with kickin_freq)

      So this version is a kind of 'featured by' release as i took (again *g*) some ideas and work from other projects and even some of that work
      comes directly from other devs so i wanna thank and give credits:

      First of all to stratosk for his great work 'sampling down momentum' and 'early demand' and for all the code fixes which found their way into
      the upstream kernel version of conservative governor! congrats and props on that stratos, happy to see such a nice and talented dev directly
      contibuting to the upstream kernel, that is a real enrichment for all of us!

      Second to Yank555 for coming up with the idea and improving/completeing (leaves nothing to be desired now *g*) my first
      rudimentary implementation of Dynamic Screen Frequency Scaling from AndreiLux (credits for the idea/work also to him at this point).

      Third to DerTeufel1980 for his first implementation of stratosk's early demand functionality into version 0.3 of zzmoove governor
      (even though i had to modify the original implementation a 'little bit' to get it working properly ;)) and for some code optimizations/fixes
      regarding scaling.

      Last but not least again to ktoonsez - I 'cherry picked' again some code parts of his ktoonservative governor which should improve this governor
      too.
Version 0.5.1b - bugfixes and more optimisations (in cooperation with Yank555)

Changelog:

    - highly optimised scaling logic (thx and credits to Yank555)
    - simplified some tuneables by using already available stuff instead of using redundant code (thx Yank555)
    - reduced/optimised hotplug logic and preperation for automatic detection of available cores
      (maybe this fixes also the scaling/core stuck problems)
    - finally fixed the freezing issue on governor stop!
Version 0.6 - flexibility (in cooperation with Yank555)

Changelog:

       - removed fixed scaling lookup tables and use the system frequency table instead
         changed scaling logic accordingly for this modification (thx and credits to Yank555)
       - reduced new hotplug logic loop to a minimum
       - again try to fix stuck issues by using seperate hotplug functions out of dbs_check_cpu (credits to ktoonesz)
       - added support for 2 and 8 core systems and added automatic detection of cores were it is needed
         (for setting the different core modes you can use the macro 'MAX_CORES'. possible values are: 2,4 or 8, default are 4 cores)
         reduced core threshold defaults to only one up/down default and use an array to hold all threshold values
       - fixed some mistakes in 'frequency tuneables' (Yank555):
         stop looping once the frequency has been found
         return invalid error if new frequency is not found in the frequency table
Version 0.6a - scaling logic felxibility (in cooperation with Yank555)

Changelog:

  - added check if CPU freq. table is in ascending or descending order and scale accordingly
    (compatibility for systems with 'inverted' frequency table like it is on OMAP4 platform)
    thanks and credits to Yank555
Version 0.7 - slow down (in cooperation with Yank555)

Changelog:

        - reindroduced the 'old way' of hotplugging and scaling in form of the 'Legacy Mode' (macros for enabling/disabling this done by Yank555, thx)
          NOTE: this mode can only handle 4 cores and a scaling max frequency up to 1800mhz.
        - added hotplug idle threshold for a balanced load at CPU idle to reduce possible higher idle temperatures when running on just one core.
          (inspired by JustArchi's observations, thx)
        - added hotplug block cycles to reduce possible hotplugging overhead (credits to ktoonsez)
        - added possibility to disable hotplugging only at suspend (inspired by a request of STAticKY, thx for the idea)
        - introduced hotplug frequency thresholds (credits to Yank555)
        - hotplug tuneables handling optimized (credits to Yank555)
        - added version information tuneable (credits to Yank555)
