[PATCH] x86/aperfmperf: Fix the fallback condition in arch_freq_get_on_cpu()
From: Keyon Jie
Date: Mon Jun 26 2023 - 15:36:28 EST
>From the commit f3eca381bd49 on, the fallback condition about the 'the
last update was too long' have been comparing ticks and milliseconds by
mistake, which leads to that the condition is met and the fallback
method is used frequently.
The change to compare ticks here corrects that and fixes related issues
have been seen on x86 platforms since 5.18 kernel.
Closes: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=217597
Fixes: f3eca381bd49 ("x86/aperfmperf: Replace arch_freq_get_on_cpu()")
