[PATCH v1 1/3] cpufreq: intel_pstate: Add and use hybrid_get_cpu_type()

From: Rafael J. Wysocki
Date: Wed Oct 08 2025 - 15:23:33 EST


From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@xxxxxxxxx>

Introduce a function for identifying the type of a given CPU in a
hybrid system, called hybrid_get_cpu_type(), and use if for hybrid
scaling factor determination in hwp_get_cpu_scaling().
