[PATCH 2/9] x86/intel_rapl: Modify hot cpu notification handling for RAPL

From: Vikas Shivappa
Date: Thu Jun 25 2015 - 15:28:36 EST


This patch modifies the hot cpu notification handling in
Intel Running Average Power Limit(RAPL) driver.

- to add a cpu reader to the rapl_cpumask(which has one cpu per package
set) it uses the existing package<->core map instead of looping
through all cpus in rapl_cpumask.
- to search for the next online sibling during hot cpu exit, it uses
the same mapping instead of looping all online cpus. In
large systems with large number of cpus the time taken to loop may be
expensive and also the time increase linearly.
