[PATCH v5 13/14] OPTIONAL: arch_topology: Start Energy Aware Scheduling

From: Quentin Perret
Date: Tue Jul 24 2018 - 08:26:32 EST


Energy Aware Scheduling (EAS) starts when the scheduling domains are
built if the Energy Model (EM) is present. However, in the typical case
of Arm/Arm64 systems, the EM is provided after the scheduling domains
are first built at boot time, which results in EAS staying disabled.

Fix this issue by re-building the scheduling domain from the arch
topology driver, once CPUfreq is up and running and the asymmetry in CPU
capacities has been detected.
