[PATCH 0/2] Fix and optimize some comments in the CPCC EM model

[Yaxiong Tian]

From: Yaxiong Tian <tianyaxiong@xxxxxxxxxx>

Commit <740fcdc2c20ec> ("cpufreq: CPPC: Register EM based on efficiency 
class information") introduced a very good feature. However, since commit
<1b600da510735a> ("PM: EM: Optimize em_cpu_energy() and remove division"), 
the energy calculation formula in the EM model has changed. Therefore, some
comments need to be updated and corrected to avoid misunderstandings.

I carefully analyzed the code theoretically and found that the new energy 
calculation formula doesn't affect the current code - in fact, it has brought 
some improvements. For example, consider four efficiency classes (1, 2, 3, 4). 
Under the old logic, there were cases where tasks would be scheduled to class 4 
CPUs instead of class 3 CPUs. This happened because the old energy calculation 
formula divided by CPU capacity, and since class 3 CPUs have lower capacity than 
class 4, it sometimes went against the original intention.

Considering that the comments about CPPC_EM_COST_GAP might be confusing, I've 
added some analytical comments before CPPC_EM_COST_GAP in the latest code to 
help other developers better understand. 

Of course, this is just my personal understanding - please point out if 
there are any mistakes.
