Paul Gortmaker reported the following build failure of the powernv cpufreq
driver on UP configs:
drivers/cpufreq/powernv-cpufreq.c:241:2: error: implicit declaration of
function 'cpu_sibling_mask' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
cc1: some warnings being treated as errors
make[3]: *** [drivers/cpufreq/powernv-cpufreq.o] Error 1
make[2]: *** [drivers/cpufreq] Error 2
make[1]: *** [drivers] Error 2
make: *** [sub-make] Error 2
The trouble here is that cpu_sibling_mask is defined only in <asm/smp.h>,
and <linux/smp.h> includes <asm/smp.h> only in SMP builds.
So fix this build failure by explicitly including <asm/smp.h> in the driver,
so that we get the definition of cpu_sibling_mask even in UP configurations.

The .driver_data field in the cpufreq_frequency_table was supposed to
be private to the drivers. However at some later point, it was being
used to indicate if the particular frequency in the table is the
BOOST_FREQUENCY. After patches [1] and [2], the .driver_data is once
again private to the driver. Thus we can safely use
cpufreq_frequency_table.driver_data to store pstate_ids instead of
having to maintain a separate array powernv_pstate_ids[] for this
purpose.

Backend driver to dynamically set voltage and frequency on
IBM POWER non-virtualized platforms. Power management SPRs
are used to set the required PState.
This driver works in conjunction with cpufreq governors
like 'ondemand' to provide a demand based frequency and
voltage setting on IBM POWER non-virtualized platforms.
PState table is obtained from OPAL v3 firmware through device
tree.
powernv_cpufreq back-end driver would parse the relevant device-tree
nodes and initialise the cpufreq subsystem on powernv platform.
The code was originally written by svaidy@linux.vnet.ibm.com. Over
time it was modified to accomodate bug-fixes as well as updates to the
the cpu-freq core. Relevant portions of the change logs corresponding
to those modifications are noted below:
* The policy->cpus needs to be populated in a hotplug-invariant
manner instead of using cpu_sibling_mask() which varies with
cpu-hotplug. This is because the cpufreq core code copies this
content into policy->related_cpus mask which should not vary on
cpu-hotplug. [Authored by srivatsa.bhat@linux.vnet.ibm.com]
* Create a helper routine that can return the cpu-frequency for the
corresponding pstate_id. Also, cache the values of the pstate_max,
pstate_min and pstate_nominal and nr_pstates in a static structure
so that they can be reused in the future to perform any
validations. [Authored by ego@linux.vnet.ibm.com]
* Create a driver attribute named cpuinfo_nominal_freq which creates
a sysfs read-only file named cpuinfo_nominal_freq. Export the
frequency corresponding to the nominal_pstate through this
interface.
Nominal frequency is the highest non-turbo frequency for the
platform. This is generally used for setting governor policies
from user space for optimal energy efficiency. [Authored by
ego@linux.vnet.ibm.com]
* Implement a powernv_cpufreq_get(unsigned int cpu) method which will
return the current operating frequency. Export this via the sysfs
interface cpuinfo_cur_freq by setting powernv_cpufreq_driver.get to
powernv_cpufreq_get(). [Authored by ego@linux.vnet.ibm.com]
