that's strange. so guc is returning the rpe when we request the min freq
during the soft config?

we could alternatively change the soft config to actually get the min
and not be tricked by this.

But also the patch below doesn't hurt.

(Although I'm still curious and want to understand exactly why
the soft min gets messed up when we don't tell guc to ignore the
efficient freq beforehand. Please help me to understand.)
