[PATCH 3.10 025/139] cpufreq: conservative: Allow down_threshold to take values from 1 to 10

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Tomasz Wilczyński <twilczynski@xxxxxxxxx>

commit b8e11f7d2791bd9320be1c6e772a60b2aa093e45 upstream.

Commit 27ed3cd2ebf4 (cpufreq: conservative: Fix the logic in frequency
decrease checking) removed the 10 point substraction when comparing the
load against down_threshold but did not remove the related limit for the
down_threshold value.  As a result, down_threshold lower than 11 is not
allowed even though values from 1 to 10 do work correctly too. The
comment ("cannot be lower than 11 otherwise freq will not fall") also
does not apply after removing the substraction.

For this reason, allow down_threshold to take any value from 1 to 99
and fix the related comment.

Fixes: 27ed3cd2ebf4 (cpufreq: conservative: Fix the logic in frequency decrease checking)
