[ Upstream commit 1cefe495cacba5fb0417da3a75a1a76e3546d176 ]
In the passive mode, intel_cpufreq_update_pstate() sets HWP_MIN_PERF in accordance with the target frequency to ensure delivering adequate performance, but it sets HWP_DESIRED_PERF to 0, so the processor has no indication that the desired performance level is actually equal to the floor one. This may cause it to choose a performance point way above the desired level.
Moreover, this is inconsistent with intel_cpufreq_adjust_perf() which actually sets HWP_DESIRED_PERF in accordance with the target performance value.
Address this by adjusting intel_cpufreq_update_pstate() to pass target_pstate as both the minimum and the desired performance levels to intel_cpufreq_hwp_update().
