Currently, intel_pstate_update_perf_limits() first converts the policy minimum and maximum limits into percentages of the maximum turbo frequency (rounding up to an integer) and then converts these percentages to fractions (by using fixed-point arithmetic to divide them by 100). That introduces a rounding error unnecessarily, because the fractions can be obtained by carrying out fixed-point divisions directly on the input numbers. Rework the computations in intel_pstate_hwp_set() to use fractions instead of percentages (and drop redundant local variables from there) and modify intel_pstate_update_perf_limits() to compute the fractions directly and percentages out of them. While at it, introduce percent_ext_fp() for converting percentages to fractions (with extended number of fraction bits) and use it in the computations. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
