From: Chen Yu <[email protected]> Commit bb6ab52f2bef ("intel_pstate: Do not set utilization update hook too early") moved the assignment of utilization update hook from intel_pstate_init_cpu to intel_pstate_set_policy(), however after moving, we need to leverage synchronize_sched() to deal with synchronization, which is time-costly because it needs to wait for all the CPUs to go through a grace period.
Actuall we don't need to synchronize_sched if schedutil has not been enabled, which also can address the problem in our case, thus bypass the synchronize_sched during bootup.
