Hi Dirk,

I've been having some huge slowdowns on my box building kernels, and I
took the time to bisect it down to commit
fcb6a15c2e7e76d493e6f91ea889ab40e1c643a4 (intel_pstate: Take core C0
time into account for core busy calculation).  With that patch reverted
on Linus's current tree, my build speeds are back up to the normal rate.

The difference is huge, 2 minutes to do a kernel build with that patch
reverted, 8-10 minutes with it applied!  With all of the stable kernel
builds and other trees, this is a huge problem for my workload (all I do
is kernel builds it seems...)

I see some patches you marked as "fixes" that you sent to Rafael, do you
want me to test any of those?  How am I the only one seeing this
problem, do you need my cpu information or anything else?

Oh, and because of the problems, I'll just drop this patch from the
-stable trees for now, I don't want to pollute them with the issue until
it is resolved properly.

thanks,

greg k-h
