div_s64() accepts the divisor parameter as s32. Helper div_fp()
also accepts divisor as int32_t.
So, remove the unnecessary int64_t type casting.

Since we never remove sysfs entry and debugfs files, we can make
the intel_pstate_kobject and debugfs_parent locals.
Also, annotate with __init intel_pstate_sysfs_expose_params()

after bootstrap.

Ensure that cpu->cpu is set before writing MSR_IA32_PERF_CTL during CPU
initialization. Otherwise only cpu0 has its P-state set and all other
cores are left with their values unchanged.
In most cases, this is not too serious because the P-states will be set
correctly when the timer function is run. But when the default governor
is set to performance, the per-CPU current_pstate stays the same forever
and no attempts are made to write the MSRs again.

If turbo is disabled in the BIOS bit 38 should be set in
MSR_IA32_MISC_ENABLE register per section 14.3.2.1 of the SDM Vol 3
document 325384-050US Feb 2014. If this bit is set do *not* attempt
to disable trubo via the MSR_IA32_PERF_CTL register. On some systems
trying to disable turbo via MSR_IA32_PERF_CTL will cause subsequent
writes to MSR_IA32_PERF_CTL not take affect, in fact reading
MSR_IA32_PERF_CTL will not show the IDA/Turbo DISENGAGE bit(32) as
set. A write of bit 32 to zero returns to normal operation.
Also deal with the case where the processor does not support
turbo and the BIOS does not report the fact in MSR_IA32_MISC_ENABLE
but does report the max and turbo P states as the same value.

Commit 21855ff5 (intel_pstate: Set turbo VID for BayTrail) introduced
setting the turbo VID which is required to prevent a machine check on
some Baytrail SKUs under heavy graphics based workloads. The
docmumentation update that brought the requirement to light also
changed the bit mask used for enumerating P state and VID values from
0x7f to 0x3f.
This change returns the mask value to 0x7f.
Tested with the Intel NUC DN2820FYK,
BIOS version FYBYT10H.86A.0034.2014.0513.1413 with v3.16-rc1 and
v3.14.8 kernel versions.

There was a mistake in the actual rounding portion this previous patch:
f0fe3cd7e1 (intel_pstate: Correct rounding in busy calculation) such that
the rounding was asymetric and incorrect.
Severity: Not very serious, but can increase target pstate by one extra value.
For real world work flows the issue should self correct (but I have no proof).
It is the equivalent of different PID gains for positive and negative numbers.
Examples:
-3.000000 used to round to -4, rounds to -3 with this patch.
-3.503906 used to round to -5, rounds to -4 with this patch.

The PID assumes that samples are of equal time, which for a deferable
timers this is not true when the system goes idle. This causes the
PID to take a long time to converge to the min P state and depending
on the pattern of the idle load can make the P state appear stuck.
The hold-off value of three sample times before using the scaling is
to give a grace period for applications that have high performance
requirements and spend a lot of time idle, The poster child for this
behavior is the ffmpeg benchmark in the Phoronix test suite.

Changing to fixed point math throughout the busy calculation in
commit e66c1768 (Change busy calculation to use fixed point
math.) Introduced some inaccuracies by rounding the busy value at two
points in the calculation. This change removes roundings and moves
the rounding to the output of the PID where the calculations are
complete and the value returned as an integer.

Setting the P state of the core to max at init time is a hold over
from early implementation of intel_pstate where intel_pstate disabled
cpufreq and loaded VERY early in the boot sequence. This was to
ensure that intel_pstate did not affect boot time. This in not needed
now that intel_pstate is a cpufreq driver.
Removing this covers the case where a CPU has gone through a manual
CPU offline/online cycle and the P state is set to MAX on init and the
CPU immediately goes idle. Due to HW coordination the P state request
on the idle CPU will drag all cores to MAX P state until the load is
reevaluated when to core goes non-idle.

Since commit d37e2b7644 ("intel_pstate: remove unneeded sample buffers")
we use only one sample. So, there is no need to pass the sample
pointer to intel_pstate_calc_busy. Instead, get the pointer from
cpudata. Also, remove the unused SAMPLE_COUNT macro.
While at it, reformat the first line in this function.

Change to use the new ->stop_cpu() callback to do clean up during CPU
hotplug. The requested P state for an offline core will be used by the
hardware coordination function to select the package P state. If the
core is under load when it is offlined it will fix the package P state
floor to the requested P state of offline core.

Commit fcb6a15c2e (intel_pstate: Take core C0 time into account for
core busy calculation) introduced a regression on some processor SKUs
supported by intel_pstate. This was due to the truncation caused by
using integer math to calculate core busy and C0 percentages.
On a i7-4770K processor operating at 800Mhz going to 100% utilization
the percent busy of the CPU using integer math is 22%, but it actually
is 22.85%. This value scaled to the current frequency returned 97
which the PID interpreted as no error and did not adjust the P state.
Tested on i7-4770K, i7-2600, i5-3230M.

LFM (max efficiency ratio) is the max frequency at minimum voltage
supported by the processor. Using LFM as the minimum P state
increases performmance without affecting power. By not using P states
below LFM we avoid using P states that are less power efficient.
