[PATCH v2 2/2] cpufreq: powernv: Use PMCR to verify global and local pstate

[Akshay Adiga]

As fast_switch() may get called with interrupt disable mode, we cannot
hold a mutex to update the global_pstate_info. So currently, fast_switch()
does not update the global_pstate_info and it will end up with stale data
whenever pstate is updated through fast_switch().

As the gpstate_timer can fire after fast_switch() has updated the pstates,
the timer handler cannot rely on the cached values of local and global
pstate and needs to read it from the PMCR.

Only gpstate_timer_handler() is affected by the stale cached pstate data
beacause either fast_switch() or target_index() routines will be called
for a given govenor, but gpstate_timer can fire after the governor has
changed to schedutil.

Changes from v1 :
- Corrected Commit message
- Type cast pstate values read from PMCR to type s8
- Added Macros to get local and global pstates from PMCR
