Currently, the notifiers are called once for each CPU of the policy->cpus cpumask. It would be more optimal if the notifier can be called only once and all the relevant information be provided to it. Out of the 23 drivers that register for the transition notifiers today, only 4 of them do per-cpu updates and the callback for the rest can be called only once for the policy without any impact. This would also avoid multiple function calls to the notifier callbacks and reduce multiple iterations of notifier core's code (which does locking as well). This patch adds pointer to the cpufreq policy to the struct cpufreq_freqs, so the notifier callback has all the information available to it with a single call. The five drivers which perform per-cpu updates are updated to use the cpufreq policy. The freqs->cpu field is redundant now and is removed. Acked-by: David S.

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.
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.
