Should that not be:

	util = clamp_util(rq, cpu_util_cfs(rq));

Because if !util might we not still want to enforce the min clamp?

OK I suppose.

Would that not be more readable as:

static inline unsigned int uclamp_value(struct rq *rq, int clamp_id)
{
	unsigned int val = rq->uclamp.value[clamp_id];

	if (unlikely(val == UCLAMP_NOT_VALID))
		val = uclamp_none(clamp_id);

	return val;
}

And how come NOT_VALID is possible? I thought the idea was to always
have all things a valid value.
