From: Jeremy Linton <jlinton@xxxxxxxxxx> redhat: configs: Disable FIE on arm FIE intends to estimate cpu work for a given task more accurately. On an ACPI/CPPC machine, the code can utilize PCC mailboxes that trap to the firmware (which are all the CPPC machines at this point). Meaning the CPU overhead of this feature far outweighs any potential benefit. The default is being changed upstream, along with some related code changes, but until the benefit is proven, it should be disabled in all fedora releases.
