[PATCH v2 11/13] x86/process: Clear hardware feedback history for AMD processors

From: Mario Limonciello
Date: Thu Oct 10 2024 - 15:40:29 EST


From: Perry Yuan <perry.yuan@xxxxxxx>

Incorporate a mechanism within the context switching code to reset
the hardware history for AMD processors. Specifically, when a task
is switched in, the class ID was read and reset the hardware workload
classification history of CPU firmware and then it start to trigger
workload classification for the next running thread.
