Subject[PATCH v3 01/17] cpufreq: Prepare timer flags for hierarchical timer pull model
Date
Note: This is a proposal only. I was waiting on input how to change this
driver properly to use the already existing infrastructure. See therfore
the thread on linux-pm mailinglist:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-pm/4c99f34b-40f1-e6cc-2669-7854b615b5fd@linutronix.de/

gpstates timer is the only timer using TIMER_PINNED and TIMER_DEFERRABLE
flag. When moving to hierarchical timer pull model, pinned and deferrable
timers are stored in separate bases.

To ensure gpstates timer always expires on the CPU where it is pinned to,
keep only TIMER_PINNED flag and drop TIMER_DEFERRABLE flag.

While at it, rewrite comment explaining the rule for timer expiry for the
next interval and fix whitespace damages.
