From 8e601a9f97a00bab031980de34f9a81891c1f82f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Srinivas Pandruvada Date: Thu, 15 Oct 2015 12:34:21 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] cpufreq: intel_pstate: Fix divide by zero on Knights Landing (KNL) This is a workaround for KNL platform, where in some cases MPERF counter will not have updated value before next read of MSR_IA32_MPERF. In this case divide by zero will occur. This change ignores current sample for busy calculation in this case.
