One way to avoid this is removing the smp-call. We can ensure that the timer always runs on one of the policy-cpus. If the timer gets migrated to a cpu outside the policy then re-queue it back on the policy->cpus. This way we can get rid of the smp-call which was being used to set the pstate on the policy->cpus.

I still think it would be good to do something about the trylock failure. It may be rare, but if it happens it could stop the timer and lead to some rare unpredictable behaviour? Not for this patch, but while you're looking at the code it would be good to consider it. Just queueing up another timer seems like it should be enough.
- /*

gpstates->timer.expires = jiffies + msecs_to_jiffies(1);

spin_unlock(&gpstates->gpstate_lock);

Really small nitpick, but you could use cpumask_any there.
Thanks, Nick
