I can't recall that, technically it could happen and I don't feel
comfortable by having potential integer overflows anyway.

The 'tegra->max_freq' will work here, but 'ULONG_MAX / KHZ' is a
constant value which is also correct and doesn't case any harm.

Probably will be even more expressive to write this as:

target_freq = dev->avg_freq + dev->boost_freq;
target_freq = tegra_actmon_account_cpu_freq(tegra, dev, target_freq);

return min(target_freq, tegra->max_freq);


Thank you very much for the reviews!
