I have some comments, but it's being pushed down by more urgent things, sorry.

First off, I think that the information from your cover letter should
go into the patch changelog (at least the majority of it), as it's
relevant for the motivation part.

Also I think that this optimization is really trading energy for
performance and that should be emphasized. IOW, it is not about
improving the prediction accuracy (which is what the cover letter and
changelog seem to be claiming), but about reducing the expected CPU
wakeup latency in some cases.

I'll send more comments later today if I have the time or later this
week otherwise.
