Valentin Schneider f259eab3ea cpufreq: make schedutil the default for arm and arm64
schedutil is already a hard-requirement for EAS, which has lead to making
it default on arm (when CONFIG_BIG_LITTLE), see:

  commit 8fdcca8e25 ("cpufreq: Select schedutil when using big.LITTLE")

One thing worth pointing out is that schedutil isn't only relevant for
asymmetric CPU capacity systems; for instance, schedutil is the only
governor that honours util-clamp performance requests. Another good example
of this is x86 switching to using it by default in:

  commit a00ec3874e ("cpufreq: intel_pstate: Select schedutil as the default governor")

Arguably it should be made the default for all architectures, but it seems
better to wait for them to also gain frequency invariance powers. Make it
the default for arm && arm64 for now.

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.
