Merge tag 'pm-4.11-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm
Pull power management fixes from Rafael Wysocki: "These fix several issues in the intel_pstate driver and one issue in the schedutil cpufreq governor, clean up that governor a bit and hook up existing code for disabling cpufreq to a new kernel command line option. Specifics: - Three fixes for intel_pstate problems related to the passive mode (in which it acts as a regular cpufreq scaling driver), two for the handling of global P-state limits and one for the handling of the cpu_frequency tracepoint in that mode (Rafael Wysocki). - Three fixes for the handling of P-state limits in intel_pstate in the active mode (Rafael Wysocki). - Introduction of a new cpufreq.off=1 kernel command line argument that will disable cpufreq entirely if passed to the kernel and is simply hooked up to the existing code used by Xen (Len Brown). - Fix for the schedutil cpufreq governor to prevent it from using stale raw frequency values in configurations with mutiple CPUs sharing one policy object and a cleanup for it reducing its overhead slightly (Viresh Kumar)" * tag 'pm-4.11-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: cpufreq: intel_pstate: Do not reinit performance limits in ->setpolicy cpufreq: intel_pstate: Fix intel_pstate_verify_policy() cpufreq: intel_pstate: Fix global settings in active mode cpufreq: Add the "cpufreq.off=1" cmdline option cpufreq: schedutil: Pass sg_policy to get_next_freq() cpufreq: schedutil: move cached_raw_freq to struct sugov_policy cpufreq: intel_pstate: Avoid triggering cpu_frequency tracepoint unnecessarily cpufreq: intel_pstate: Fix intel_cpufreq_verify_policy() cpufreq: intel_pstate: Do not use performance_limits in passive mode
