Waldemar Rymarkiewicz c5c2a97b3a PM / OPP: Update voltage in case freq == old_freq
This commit fixes a rare but possible case when the clk rate is updated
without update of the regulator voltage.

At boot up, CPUfreq checks if the system is running at the right freq. This
is a sanity check in case a bootloader set clk rate that is outside of freq
table present with cpufreq core. In such cases system can be unstable so
better to change it to a freq that is preset in freq-table.

The CPUfreq takes next freq that is >= policy->cur and this is our
target_freq that needs to be set now.

dev_pm_opp_set_rate(dev, target_freq) checks the target_freq and the
old_freq (a current rate). If these are equal it returns early. If not,
it searches for OPP (old_opp) that fits best to old_freq (not listed in
the table) and updates old_freq (!).

Here, we can end up with old_freq = old_opp.rate = target_freq, which
is not handled in _generic_set_opp_regulator(). It's supposed to update
voltage only when freq > old_freq  || freq > old_freq.

if (freq > old_freq) {
		ret = _set_opp_voltage(dev, reg, new_supply);
[...]
if (freq < old_freq) {
		ret = _set_opp_voltage(dev, reg, new_supply);
		if (ret)

It results in, no voltage update while clk rate is updated.

Example:
freq-table = {
	1000MHz   1.15V
	 666MHZ   1.10V
	 333MHz   1.05V
}
boot-up-freq        = 800MHz   # not listed in freq-table
freq = target_freq  = 1GHz
old_freq            = 800Mhz
old_opp = _find_freq_ceil(opp_table, &old_freq);  #(old_freq is modified!)
old_freq            = 1GHz

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.
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.
