FROMLIST: sched: Make iowait_boost optional in schedutil
We should apply the iowait boost only if cpufreq policy has iowait boost enabled. Also make it a schedutil configuration from sysfs so it can be turned on/off if needed (by default initialize it to the policy value). For systems that don't need/want it enabled, such as those on arm64 based mobile devices that are battery operated, it saves energy when the cpufreq driver policy doesn't have it enabled (details below): Here are some results for energy measurements collected running a YouTube video for 30 seconds: Before: 8.042533 mWh After: 7.948377 mWh Energy savings is ~1.2% Bug: 38010527 Link: https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/5/19/42 Change-Id: If124076ad0c16ade369253840dedfbf870aff927 Signed-off-by: Joel Fernandes <joelaf@google.com>
