Shivnandan Kumar 8d36694245 PM: QoS: Add check to make sure CPU freq is non-negative
CPU frequency should never be negative.

If some client driver calls freq_qos_update_request with a
negative value which will be very high in absolute terms,
then frequency QoS sets max CPU freq at fmax as it considers
it's absolute value but it will add plist node with negative
priority.

plist node has priority from INT_MIN (highest) to INT_MAX(lowest).
Once priority is set as negative, another client will not be able
to reduce CPU frequency.

Adding check to make sure CPU freq is non-negative will fix
this problem.

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.
