Now that the frequency scale factor has been activated for retrieving current frequency on a given CPU, trigger its update upon entering idle. This will, to an extent, allow querying last known frequency in a non-invasive way. It will also improve the frequency scale factor accuracy when a CPU entering idle did not receive a tick for a while. As a consequence, for idle cores, the reported frequency will be the last one observed before entering the idle state.

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 reStructuredText 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.
