Prefix print messages with KBUILD_MODNAME, i.e 'cpufreq_schedutil: '.
This helps to keep similar formatting for all the print messages
particular to a file and identify those easily in kernel logs.
Its already done this way for rest of the governors.
Along with that, remove the (now) redundant bits from a print message.

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"The majority of changes go into the cpufreq subsystem this time.
To me, quite obviously, the biggest ticket item is the new "schedutil"
governor. Interestingly enough, it's the first new cpufreq governor
since the beginning of the git era (except for some out-of-the-tree
ones).
There are two main differences between it and the existing governors.
First, it uses the information provided by the scheduler directly for
making its decisions, so it doesn't have to track anything by itself.
Second, it can invoke drivers (supporting that feature) to adjust CPU
performance right away without having to spawn work items to be
executed in process context or similar. Currently, the acpi-cpufreq
driver is the only one supporting that mode of operation, but then it
is used on a large number of systems.
The "schedutil" governor as included here is very simple and mostly
regarded as a foundation for future work on the integration of the
scheduler with CPU power management (in fact, there is work in
progress on top of it already). Nevertheless it works and the
preliminary results obtained with it are encouraging.
There also is some consolidation of CPU frequency management for ARM
platforms that can add their machine IDs the the new stub dt-platdev
driver now and that will take care of creating the requisite platform
device for cpufreq-dt, so it is not necessary to do that in platform
code any more. Several ARM platforms are switched over to using this
generic mechanism.
In addition to that, the intel_pstate driver is now going to respect
CPU frequency limits set by the platform firmware (or a BMC) and
provided via the ACPI _PPC object.
The devfreq subsystem is getting a new "passive" governor for SoCs
subsystems that will depend on somebody else to manage their voltage
rails and its support for Samsung Exynos SoCs is consolidated.
The rest is support for new hardware (Intel Broxton support in
intel_idle for one example), bug fixes, optimizations and cleanups in
a number of places.
Specifics:
- New cpufreq "schedutil" governor (making decisions based on CPU
utilization information provided by the scheduler and capable of
switching CPU frequencies right away if the underlying driver
supports that) and support for fast frequency switching in the
acpi-cpufreq driver (Rafael Wysocki)
- Consolidation of CPU frequency management on ARM platforms allowing
them to get rid of some platform-specific boilerplate code if they
are going to use the cpufreq-dt driver (Viresh Kumar, Finley Xiao,
Marc Gonzalez)
- Support for ACPI _PPC and CPU frequency limits in the intel_pstate
driver (Srinivas Pandruvada)
- Fixes and cleanups in the cpufreq core and generic governor code
(Rafael Wysocki, Sai Gurrappadi)
- intel_pstate driver optimizations and cleanups (Rafael Wysocki,
Philippe Longepe, Chen Yu, Joe Perches)
- cpufreq powernv driver fixes and cleanups (Akshay Adiga, Shilpasri
Bhat)
- cpufreq qoriq driver fixes and cleanups (Jia Hongtao)
- ACPI cpufreq driver cleanups (Viresh Kumar)
- Assorted cpufreq driver updates (Ashwin Chaugule, Geliang Tang,
Javier Martinez Canillas, Paul Gortmaker, Sudeep Holla)
- Assorted cpufreq fixes and cleanups (Joe Perches, Arnd Bergmann)
- Fixes and cleanups in the OPP (Operating Performance Points)
framework, mostly related to OPP sharing, and reorganization of
OF-dependent code in it (Viresh Kumar, Arnd Bergmann, Sudeep Holla)
- New "passive" governor for devfreq (for SoC subsystems that will
rely on someone else for the management of their power resources)
and consolidation of devfreq support for Exynos platforms, coding
style and typo fixes for devfreq (Chanwoo Choi, MyungJoo Ham)
- PM core fixes and cleanups, mostly to make it work better with the
generic power domains (genpd) framework, and updates for that
framework (Ulf Hansson, Thierry Reding, Colin Ian King)
- Intel Broxton support for the intel_idle driver (Len Brown)
- cpuidle core optimization and fix (Daniel Lezcano, Dave Gerlach)
- ARM cpuidle cleanups (Jisheng Zhang)
- Intel Kabylake support for the RAPL power capping driver (Jacob

Systems show a minimal load average of 0.00, 0.01, 0.05 even when they
have no load at all.
Uptime and /proc/loadavg on all systems with kernels released during the
last five years up until kernel version 4.6-rc5, show a 5- and 15-minute
minimum loadavg of 0.01 and 0.05 respectively. This should be 0.00 on
idle systems, but the way the kernel calculates this value prevents it
from getting lower than the mentioned values.
Likewise but not as obviously noticeable, a fully loaded system with no
processes waiting, shows a maximum 1/5/15 loadavg of 1.00, 0.99, 0.95
(multiplied by number of cores).
Once the (old) load becomes 93 or higher, it mathematically can never
get lower than 93, even when the active (load) remains 0 forever.
This results in the strange 0.00, 0.01, 0.05 uptime values on idle
systems. Note: 93/2048 = 0.0454..., which rounds up to 0.05.
It is not correct to add a 0.5 rounding (=1024/2048) here, since the
result from this function is fed back into the next iteration again,
so the result of that +0.5 rounding value then gets multiplied by
(2048-2037), and then rounded again, so there is a virtual "ghost"
load created, next to the old and active load terms.
By changing the way the internally kept value is rounded, that internal
value equivalent now can reach 0.00 on idle, and 1.00 on full load. Upon
increasing load, the internally kept load value is rounded up, when the
load is decreasing, the load value is rounded down.
The modified code was tested on nohz=off and nohz kernels. It was tested
on vanilla kernel 4.6-rc5 and on centos 7.1 kernel 3.10.0-327. It was
tested on single, dual, and octal cores system. It was tested on virtual
hosts and bare hardware. No unwanted effects have been observed, and the
problems that the patch intended to fix were indeed gone.

The following commit:
9642d18eee ("nohz: Affine unpinned timers to housekeepers")'
intended to affine unpinned timers to housekeepers:
unpinned timers(full dynaticks, idle) => nearest busy housekeepers(otherwise, fallback to any housekeepers)
unpinned timers(full dynaticks, busy) => nearest busy housekeepers(otherwise, fallback to any housekeepers)
unpinned timers(houserkeepers, idle) => nearest busy housekeepers(otherwise, fallback to itself)
However, the !idle_cpu(i) && is_housekeeping_cpu(cpu) check modified the
intention to:
unpinned timers(full dynaticks, idle) => any housekeepers(no mattter cpu topology)
unpinned timers(full dynaticks, busy) => any housekeepers(no mattter cpu topology)
unpinned timers(housekeepers, idle) => any busy cpus(otherwise, fallback to any housekeepers)
This patch fixes it by checking if there are busy housekeepers nearby,
otherwise falls to any housekeepers/itself. After the patch:
unpinned timers(full dynaticks, idle) => nearest busy housekeepers(otherwise, fallback to any housekeepers)
unpinned timers(full dynaticks, busy) => nearest busy housekeepers(otherwise, fallback to any housekeepers)

Pavan reported that in the presence of very light tasks (or cgroups)
the placement of migrated tasks can cause severe fairness issues.
The problem is that enqueue_entity() places the task before it updates
time, thereby it can place the task far in the past (remember that
light tasks will shoot virtual time forward at a high speed, so in
relation to the pre-existing light task, we can land far in the past).
This is done because update_curr() needs the current task, and we
might be placing the current task.
The obvious solution is to differentiate between the current and any
other task; placing the current before we update time, and placing any
other task after, such that !curr tasks end up at the current moment
in time, and not in the past.
This commit re-introduces the previously reverted commit:
3a47d5124a ("sched/fair: Fix fairness issue on migration")
... which is now safe to do, after we've also fixed another
underlying bug first, in:
sched/fair: Prepare to fix fairness problems on migration
and cleaned up other details in the migration code:

Mike reported that our recent attempt to fix migration problems:
3a47d5124a ("sched/fair: Fix fairness issue on migration")
broke interactivity and the signal starve test. We reverted that
commit and now let's try it again more carefully, with some other
underlying problems fixed first.
One problem is that I assumed ENQUEUE_WAKING was only set when we do a
cross-cpu wakeup (migration), which isn't true. This means we now
destroy the vruntime history of tasks and wakeup-preemption suffers.
Cure this by making my assumption true, only call
sched_class::task_waking() when we do a cross-cpu wakeup. This avoids
the indirect call in the case we do a local wakeup.

The alleged requirement that the migration notifier has a lower priority than
perf is completely undocumented and there is no indication at all that this is
true. perf does not even handle the CPU_ONLINE notification and perf really
has nothing to do with migration.

In order to enable symmetric hotplug, we must mirror the online &&
!active state of cpu-down on the cpu-up side.
However, to retain sanity, limit this state to per-cpu kthreads.
Aside from the change to set_cpus_allowed_ptr(), which allow moving
the per-cpu kthreads on, the other critical piece is the cpu selection
for pinned tasks in select_task_rq(). This avoids dropping into
select_fallback_rq().
select_fallback_rq() cannot be allowed to select !active cpus because
its used to migrate user tasks away. And we do not want to move user
tasks onto cpus that are in transition.
