As fast_switch() may get called with interrupt disable mode, we cannot hold a mutex to update the global_pstate_info. So currently, fast_switch() does not update the global_pstate_info and it will end up with stale data whenever pstate is updated through fast_switch(). As the gpstate_timer can fire after fast_switch() has updated the pstates, the timer handler cannot rely on the cached values of local and global pstate and needs to read it from the PMCR. Only gpstate_timer_handler() is affected by the stale cached pstate data beacause either fast_switch() or target_index() routines will be called for a given govenor, but gpstate_timer can fire after the governor has changed to schedutil.
