If the last CPU frequency selected isn't set before a new CPU frequency
selection arrives, then use the new selection immediately to avoid using a
stale frequency choice. This improves both performance and energy by more
closely tracking the scheduler's latest decisions.

Restricting sugov kthreads to their respective CPUFreq policy's CPUs slows
down schedutil's ability to switch frequencies. When DVFS is allowed from
any CPU, allow respective sugov kthreads to run on any CPU for better
performance.

The schedutil governor reduces frequencies too fast in some
situations which cases undesirable performance drops to
appear.
To address that issue, make schedutil reduce the frequency slower by
setting it to the average of the value chosen during the previous
iteration of governor computations and the new one coming from its
frequency selection formula.
