Now that we have both the dl class bandwidth requirement and the dl class
utilization, we can detect when CPU is fully used so we should run at max.
Otherwise, we keep using the dl bandwidth requirement to define the
utilization of the CPU

Mmm, won't we run at max (or reach max) with a, say, 100ms/500ms DL task
running alone?

Best,

not for a 100ms running task. You have to run more than 320ms to reach max value

100ms/500ms will vary between 0 and 907

OK, right, my point I guess is still that such a task will run fine at
~250 and it might be save more energy by doing so?

Also, less freq switches (consider for example a few background CFS
tasks waking up from time to time).

As discussed on IRC, we still endup selecting 1/5 of max freq because
util_dl is below max.

So, turning point is at ~320ms/[something_bigger], which looks a pretty
big runtime, but I'm not sure if having that is OK. Also, it becomes
smaller with CFS/RT background "perturbations". Mmm.

BTW, adding Luca and Claudio. :)

Argh... I have added few more but forgot Luca and Claudio. I'm very sorry

Please don't delete that comment. It is not less relevant.

I think you forgot to fix-up ignore_dl_rate_limit().
