[PATCH 3.13 118/172] intel_pstate: Use LFM bus ratio as min ratio/P state
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Mar 04 2014 - 16:01:31 EST
3.13-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Dirk Brandewie <dirk.j.brandewie@xxxxxxxxx>
commit 4042e7570cff740460b75c6fc604c629621d3dd2 upstream.
LFM (max efficiency ratio) is the max frequency at minimum voltage
supported by the processor. Using LFM as the minimum P state
increases performmance without affecting power. By not using P states
below LFM we avoid using P states that are less power efficient.
