[ Upstream commit 3698dd6b139dc37b35a9ad83d9330c1f99666c02 ] We observed an issue that the CPU frequency can't raise up with a 100% CPU load when NOHZ is off and the 'conservative' governor is selected. 'idle_time' can be negative if it's obtained from get_cpu_idle_time_jiffy() when NOHZ is off. This was found and explained in commit9485e4ca0b("cpufreq: governor: Fix handling of special cases in dbs_update()"). However, commit7592019634("cpufreq: governors: Fix long idle detection logic in load calculation") introduced a comparison between 'idle_time' and 'samling_rate' to detect a long idle interval. While 'idle_time' is converted to int before comparison, it's actually promoted to unsigned again when compared with an unsigned 'sampling_rate'. Hence, this leads to wrong idle interval detection when it's in fact 100% busy and sets policy_dbs->idle_periods to a very large value. 'conservative' adjusts the frequency to minimum because of the large 'idle_periods', such that the frequency can't raise up. 'Ondemand' doesn't use policy_dbs->idle_periods so it fortunately avoids the issue. Correct negative 'idle_time' to 0 before any use of it in dbs_update().

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.
