Currently there is a chance of a schedutil cpufreq update request to be dropped if there is a pending update request. This pending request can be delayed if there is a scheduling delay of the irq_work and the wake up of the schedutil governor kthread. A very bad scenario is when a schedutil request was already just made, such as to reduce the CPU frequency, then a newer request to increase CPU frequency (even sched deadline urgent frequency increase requests) can be dropped, even though the rate limits suggest that its Ok to process a request. This is because of the way the work_in_progress flag is used. This patch improves the situation by allowing new requests to happen even though the old one is still being processed. Note that in this approach, if an irq_work was already issued, we just update next_freq and don't bother to queue another request so there's no extra work being done to make this happen.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
