[PATCH v6 06/11] cpufreq/schedutil: use dl utilization tracking

From: Vincent Guittot
Date: Fri Jun 08 2018 - 08:10:40 EST


Now that we have both the dl class bandwidth requirement and the dl class
utilization, we can detect when CPU is fully used so we should run at max.
Otherwise, we keep using the dl bandwidth requirement to define the
utilization of the CPU
