cpufreq: Fix broken uevents for cpufreq governor and cpu devices

cyanogens uevent commit when the governor changes was rendered
non-working since kitkat (or so) as the uevent filter function
caused events to be dropped. Now hook into cpufreq_core_init()
and cpufreq_add_dev_interface() to create our basic ksets for
cpufreq and cpu devices. Also, we don't need to set environmental
data, so clean it up a bit.

This commit requires a change in ueventd.rc that add rules for
several files of interest.

cpufreq: interactive: Fix null pointer dereference in interactive governor

For the sync_freq feature currently we check pcpu->policy->cur frequency
for each online cpu.  But for a CPU that isn't using interactive governor
or for an offline CPU, pcpu->policy can be null or an invalid value.
This patch tries to avoid that scenario by using pcpu->target_freq
instead of policy->cur to get the frequency of an online CPU.

mm: fix calculation of dirtyable memory

The system uses global_dirtyable_memory() to calculate number of
dirtyable pages/pages that can be allocated to the page cache.  A bug
causes an underflow thus making the page count look like a big unsigned
number.  This in turn confuses the dirty writeback throttling to
aggressively write back pages as they become dirty (usually 1 page at a
time).  This generally only affects systems with highmem because the
underflowed count gets subtracted from the global count of dirtyable
memory.

The problem was introduced with v3.2-4896-gab8fabd

Fix is to ensure we don't get an underflowed total of either highmem or
global dirtyable memory.

writeback: fix writeback cache thrashing

Consider Process A: huge I/O on sda
        doing heavy write operation - dirty memory becomes more
        than dirty_background_ratio
        on HDD - flusher thread flush-8:0

Consider Process B: small I/O on sdb
        doing while [1]; read 1024K + rewrite 1024K + sleep 2sec
        on Flash device - flusher thread flush-8:16

As Process A is a heavy dirtier, dirty memory becomes more
than dirty_background_thresh. Due to this, below check becomes
true(checking global_page_state in over_bground_thresh)
for all bdi devices(even for very small dirtied bdi - sdb):

In this case, even small cached data on 'sdb' is forced to flush
and writeback cache thrashing happens.

When we added debug prints inside above 'if' condition and ran
above Process A(heavy dirtier on bdi with flush-8:0) and
Process B(1024K frequent read/rewrite on bdi with flush-8:16)
we got below prints:

As mentioned in above log, when global dirty memory > global background_thresh
small cached data is also forced to flush by flush-8:16.
If removing global background_thresh checking code, we can reduce cache
thrashing of frequently used small data.
And It will be great if we can reserve a portion of writeback cache using
min_ratio.

After applying patch:
$ echo 5 > /sys/block/sdb/bdi/min_ratio
$ cat /sys/block/sdb/bdi/min_ratio

[over_bground_thresh]: wakeup flush-8:0 : BDI_RECLAIMABLE =  90688 KB

As mentioned in the above logs, once cache is reserved for Process B,
and patch is applied there is less writeback cache thrashing on sdb
by frequent forced writeback by flush-8:16 in over_bground_thresh.

After all, small cached data will be flushed by periodic writeback
once every dirty_writeback_interval.

CK3 tweaks (Credits to Con Kolivas)

* mm-enable_swaptoken_only_when_swap_full.patch:
  The swap token is only useful in conditions of swap thrash, and actually
  worsens the common case by causing more swapping. Make it only have an effect
  when swap is more than half full.

* mm-drop_swap_cache_aggressively.patch:
  While it may be nice to have a copy of pages on swap once written there, the
  more garbage we leave in the swapspace the slower any further writes and
  reads to and from it are. Just free swapcache whenever we can.

* mm-kswapd_inherit_prio-1.patch:
  When kswapd is awoken due to reclaim by a running task, set the priority of
  kswapd to that of the calling task thus making memory reclaim cpu activity
  affected by nice level.

* hz-default_1000.patch:
  Set default HZ to 1000 which is what most desktop users should still be using.

* hz-no_default_250.patch:
  Make 250HZ not be the default to discourage desktop users from choosing this
  option since 1000 will provide better latencies with only miniscule amounts
  of extra overhead and power consumption.

* preempt-desktop-tune.patch:
  Enable preempt by default and make people steer away from voluntary.
