why do we skip the boost if already started?
don't we want to boost the freq anyway?
I'd wager Rob is just copying the current i915 wait boost logic.

I'm afraid it will be very hard to find some heuristics of what's
late enough for the boost no?
I mean, how early to boost the freq on an upcoming deadline for the
timer?
We can off load this patch from Rob and deal with it separately, or
after the fact?
It's a half solution without a smarter scheduler too. Like
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20210208105236.28498-10-chris@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/,
or if GuC plans to do something like that at any point.
Or bump the priority too if deadline is looming?
IMO it is not very effective to fiddle with the heuristic on an ad-hoc
basis. For instance I have a new heuristics which improves the
problematic OpenCL cases for further 5% (relative to the current
waitboost improvement from adding missing syncobj waitboost). But I
can't really test properly for regressions over platforms, stacks,
workloads.. :(
