The last item of a performance domain is not always the performance point that has been used to compute CPU's capacity. This can lead to different target frequency compared with other part of the system like schedutil and would result in wrong energy estimation. A new arch_scale_freq_ref() is available to return a fixed and coherent frequency reference that can be used when computing the CPU's frequency for an level of utilization. Use this function to get this reference frequency. Energy model is never used without defining arch_scale_freq_ref() but can be compiled. Define a default arch_scale_freq_ref() returning 0 in such case.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
