The original code is:   

        if (ctl < 0)
                intel_pstate_pstate_increase(cpu, steps);
        else
                intel_pstate_pstate_decrease(cpu, steps);
                
Without inlines functions intel_pstate_pstate_increase() and
intel_pstate_pstate_decrease() we get:

        if (ctl < 0)
                intel_pstate_set_pstate(cpu, cpu->pstate.current_pstate + 
steps);
        else
                intel_pstate_set_pstate(cpu, cpu->pstate.current_pstate - 
steps);

        
But steps = abs(ctl), so:

        if (ctl < 0)
                intel_pstate_set_pstate(cpu, cpu->pstate.current_pstate + 
abs(ctl));
        else
                intel_pstate_set_pstate(cpu, cpu->pstate.current_pstate - 
abs(ctl));
        
By definition, abs(ctl) = ctl if ctl >= 0, -ctl if ctl < 0. Thus:

        if (ctl < 0)
                intel_pstate_set_pstate(cpu, cpu->pstate.current_pstate + 
(-ctl));
        else
                intel_pstate_set_pstate(cpu, cpu->pstate.current_pstate - ctl);

And:
        if (ctl < 0)
                intel_pstate_set_pstate(cpu, cpu->pstate.current_pstate - ctl);
        else
                intel_pstate_set_pstate(cpu, cpu->pstate.current_pstate - ctl);

Finally remove the unnecessary if statement.            
        intel_pstate_set_pstate(cpu, cpu->pstate.current_pstate - ctl);

So, this is equivalent with the original code.

Stratos
