commit ca182aee upstream.

The ffmpeg benchmark in the phoronix test suite has threads on
multiple cores that rely on the progress on of threads on other cores
and ping pong back and forth fast enough to make the core appear less
busy than it "should" be.  If the core has been at minimum p-state for
a while bump the pstate up to kick the core to see if it is in this
ping pong state.  If the core is truly idle the p-state will be
reduced at the next sample time.  If the core makes more progress it
will send more work to the thread bringing both threads out of the
ping pong scenario and the p-state will be selected normally.

This fixes a performance regression of approximately 30%
