Thanks a lot for bisecting this, and ack on the revert in any case, these 
are relatively fresh changes that clearly didn't get enough testing - sorry!

I also made the revert in sched/urgent & added a changelog, which you can 
pull from:

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git sched-urgent-2024-01-11

   # HEAD: 250ce3c1169743f3575cc5937fccd72380052795 Revert "sched/cpufreq: Rework schedutil governor performance estimation" and dependent commits

Revert recent changes to the sched_util logic, to address a bad
performance regression that increased kernel build time on Linus's
64-CPU desktop system substantially.

Lightly build and boot tested.

 Thanks,

	Ingo
