From: Tvrtko Ursulin <tvrtko.ursu...@intel.com> We can use engine busy stats instead of the sampling timer for better accuracy.
By doing this we replace the stohastic sampling with busyness metric derived directly from engine activity. This is context switch interrupt driven, so as accurate as we can get from software tracking. As a secondary benefit, we can also not run the sampling timer in cases only busyness metric is enabled. v2: Rebase. v3: * Rebase, comments. * Leave engine busyness controls out of workers. v4: Checkpatch cleanup. v5: Added comment to pmu_needs_timer change. v6: * Rebase. * Fix style of some comments. (Chris Wilson) v7: Rebase and commit message update.
