From e9d95bf7eb929b9ddc9af9f4327b76c77ed4c7d6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "venkatesh.pallipadi@intel.com" Date: Mon, 4 Aug 2008 11:59:10 -0700 Subject: [CPUFREQ][4/6] cpufreq_ondemand: Parameterize down differential Use a parameter for down differential, instead of hardcoded 10%. Follow-on patch changes the down-differential dynamically, based on whether we are using idle micro-accounting or not.
