cpufreq: cpu-boost: Use hotplug thread infrastructure

Before this patch, thread migration ran in uninterruptible threads.
Use the relatively new hotplug thread infrastructure with parked
threads to reduce cpu load (x4).

cpufreq: cpu-boost: Fix queue_delayed_work_on() race with hotplug

Calling queue_delayed_work_on() on a CPU that's in the process of getting
hotplugged out can result in that CPU infinitely looping in
msm_pm_wait_cpu_shutdown(). If queue_delayed_work_on() is called after the
CPU is hotplugged out, it could wake up the CPU without going through the
hotplug path and cause instability. To avoid this, make sure the CPU is and
stays online while queuing a work on it.

cpufreq: Sync on thread migration optimizations

When threads migrate between CPUs the destination CPU will temporarily
have a boosted frequency and the source CPU will have a residual higher
frequency even though the load could have just been reduced. To avoid
leaving CPUs at a high frequencies notify the source CPU after a thread
migration and make the interactive governor's timer reschedule
conditionally.

cpufreq: cpu-boost: Re-issue boosts above minimum frequency

Frequency boosts where the source CPU frequency is greater than CPU's
minimum frequency should always go through regardless of the destination
CPU's current frequency. This fixes a performance issue where the governor
lowers the CPU frequency shortly after a thread is migrated to it because
the boost wasn't re-issued.

[backport]: sched: Load-based CPU boosting

sched: Improve balance_cpu() to consider other cpus in its group as target of (pinned) task

Current load balance scheme requires only one cpu in a
sched_group (balance_cpu) to look at other peer sched_groups for
imbalance and pull tasks towards itself from a busy cpu. Tasks
thus pulled by balance_cpu could later get picked up by cpus
that are in the same sched_group as that of balance_cpu.

This scheme however fails to pull tasks that are not allowed to
run on balance_cpu (but are allowed to run on other cpus in its
sched_group). That can affect fairness and in some worst case
scenarios cause starvation.

Consider a two core (2 threads/core) system running tasks as
below:

          Core0            Core1
         /     \          /     \
	C0     C1	 C2     C3
        |      |         |      |
        v      v         v      v
	F0     T1        F1     [idle]
			 T2

 F0 = SCHED_FIFO task (pinned to C0)
 F1 = SCHED_FIFO task (pinned to C2)
 T1 = SCHED_OTHER task (pinned to C1)
 T2 = SCHED_OTHER task (pinned to C1 and C2)

F1 could become a cpu hog, which will starve T2 unless C1 pulls
it. Between C0 and C1 however, C0 is required to look for
imbalance between cores, which will fail to pull T2 towards
Core0. T2 will starve eternally in this case. The same scenario
can arise in presence of non-rt tasks as well (say we replace F1
with high irq load).

We tackle this problem by having balance_cpu move pinned tasks
to one of its sibling cpus (where they can run). We first check
if load balance goal can be met by ignoring pinned tasks,
failing which we retry move_tasks() with a new env->dst_cpu.

This patch modifies load balance semantics on who can move load
towards a given cpu in a given sched_domain.

Before this patch, a given_cpu or a ilb_cpu acting on behalf of
an idle given_cpu is responsible for moving load to given_cpu.

With this patch applied, balance_cpu can in addition decide on
moving some load to a given_cpu.

There is a remote possibility that excess load could get moved
as a result of this (balance_cpu and given_cpu/ilb_cpu deciding
*independently* and at *same* time to move some load to a
given_cpu). However we should see less of such conflicting
decisions in practice and moreover subsequent load balance
cycles should correct the excess load moved to given_cpu.

sched: Don't consider other cpus in our group in case of NEWLY_IDLE

Commit 88b8dac0 makes load_balance() consider other cpus in its
group, regardless of idle type. When we do NEWLY_IDLE balancing,
we should not consider it, because a motivation of NEWLY_IDLE
balancing is to turn this cpu to non idle state if needed. This
is not the case of other cpus. So, change code not to consider
other cpus for NEWLY_IDLE balancing.

With this patch, assign 'if (pulled_task) this_rq->idle_stamp =
0' in idle_balance() is corrected, because NEWLY_IDLE balancing
doesn't consider other cpus. Assigning to 'this_rq->idle_stamp'
is now valid.

sched: Prevent to re-select dst-cpu in load_balance()

Commit 88b8dac0 makes load_balance() consider other cpus in its
group. But, in that, there is no code for preventing to
re-select dst-cpu. So, same dst-cpu can be selected over and
over.

This patch add functionality to load_balance() in order to
exclude cpu which is selected once. We prevent to re-select
dst_cpu via env's cpus, so now, env's cpus is a candidate not
only for src_cpus, but also dst_cpus.

With this patch, we can remove lb_iterations and
max_lb_iterations, because we decide whether we can go ahead or
not via env's cpus.

cpufreq: cpu-boost: Introduce scheduler assisted load based syncs

Previously, on getting a migration notification cpu-boost changed
the scaling min of the destination frequency to match that of the
source frequency or sync_threshold whichever was minimum.

If the scheduler migration notification is extended with task load
(cpu demand) information, the cpu boost driver can use this load to
compute a suitable frequency for the migrating task. The required
frequency for the task is calculated by taking the load percentage
of the max frequency and no sync is performed if the load is less
than a particular value (migration_load_threshold).This change is
beneficial for both perf and power as demand of a task is taken into
consideration while making cpufreq decisions and unnecessary syncs
for lightweight tasks are avoided.

The task load information provided by scheduler comes from a
window-based load collection mechanism which also normalizes the
load collected by the scheduler to the max possible frequency
across all CPUs.

sched: Call the notify_on_migrate notifier chain for wakeups as well

Add a change to send notify_on_migrate hints on wakeups of

These hints can be used to choose an appropriate CPU frequency
corresponding to the load of the task being woken up.

sched: Disable wakeup hints for foreground tasks by default

By default sched_wakeup_load_threshold is set to 60 and therefore
wakeup hints are sent out for those tasks whose loads are higher
that value. This might cause unnecessary wakeup boosts to happen
when load based syncing is turned ON for cpu-boost.
Disable the wake up hints by setting the sched_wakeup_load_threshold
to a value higher than 100 so that wakeup boost doesnt happen unless
it is explicitly turned ON from adb shell.

sched: Window-based load stat improvements

Some tasks can have a sporadic load pattern such that they can suddenly
start running for longer intervals of time after running for shorter
durations. To recognize such sharp increase in tasks' demands, max
between the average of 5 window load samples and the most recent sample
is chosen as the task demand.

Make the window size (sched_ravg_window) configurable at boot up
time. To prevent users from setting inappropriate values for window
size, min and max limits are defined. As 'ravg' struct tracks load for
both real-time and non real-time tasks it is moved out of sched_entity
struct.

In order to prevent changing function signatures for move_tasks() and
move_one_task() per-cpu variables are defined to track the total load
moved. In case multiple tasks are selected to migrate in one load
balance operation, loads > 100 could be sent through migration notifiers.
Prevent this scenario by setting mnd.load to 100 in such cases.

Define wrapper functions to compute cpu demands for tasks and to change
rq->cumulative_runnable_avg.

cpufreq: cpu-boost: Consider only task load to decide on sync frequency

Currently we take the maximum between the source CPU frequency and
the calculated frequency based on the migrating task load to decide on
the frequency to sync the destination CPU to. This was done to handle
short bursts in workloads of tasks which migrated immediately after
causing a ramp up on the source CPU. Since their load history wasn't
high enough, the destination CPU synced to a lower frequency which
wasn't sufficient for the spike in workload.

But as such cases are rare, taking the higher of source and calculated
frequency can lead to destination CPU unnecessarily spending a
considerable amount of time at higher frequencies which in turn can
hurt power.

With this change we make sure only the migrating task load is used
to calculate the sync frequency for destination CPU when load based
syncing is enabled.
