Hey Jeff,

The change has been reverted.

At first the it looked like a sensible folloup to previous changes and
it even got r-bed, but as pointed out by Michal, this constraint still
should hold, as it's checked in a non-boost scenario.

It hides bug introduced into the kernel by the commit:
"drm/i915: Define a separate variable and control for RPS waitboost frequency"

for GuC submission path, as the check below always holds true as we have
waiters all the time:
     if (client_boost || any_waiters) max = hw_max;

What was the point of this change?
Were you aware of the fail in the guc_submission scenario?

Arek
