Hi all,
This patch set aims to refactor the thermal pressure update
code. There are already two clients which do similar thing:
convert the capped frequency value into the capacity of
affected CPU and call the 'set' function to store the
reduced capacity into the per-cpu variable.
There might be more than two of these users. In near future
it will be scmi-cpufreq driver, which receives notification
from FW about reduced frequency due to thermal. Other vendors
might follow. Let's avoid code duplication and potential
conversion bugs. Move the conversion code into the arch_topology.c
where the capacity calculation setup code and thermal pressure sit.
Apart from that $subject patches, there is one patch (3/5) which fixes
issue in qcom-cpufreq-hw.c when the thermal pressure is not
updated for offline CPUs. It's similar fix that has been merged
recently for cpufreq_cooling.c:

2.17.1
Thermal pressure provides a new API, which allows to use CPU frequency
as an argument. That removes the need of local conversion to capacity.
Use this new function and remove old conversion code.

2.17.1
The thermal pressure signal gives information to the scheduler about
reduced CPU capacity due to thermal. It is based on a value stored in
a per-cpu 'thermal_pressure' variable. The online CPUs will get the
new value there, while the offline won't. Unfortunately, when the CPU
is back online, the value read from per-cpu variable might be wrong
(stale data). This might affect the scheduler decisions, since it
sees the CPU capacity differently than what is actually available.
Fix it by making sure that all online+offline CPUs would get the
proper value in their per-cpu variable when there is throttling
or throttling is removed.

There is no need of this function (and related) since code has been
converted to use the new arch_thermal_pressure_update() API. The old

The thermal pressure is a mechanism which is used for providing

has to convert the value from frequency units into capacity units,
which are understandable by the scheduler. Create a common conversion code
which can be just used via a handy API.
