Yaxiong Tian 630f3eca39 cpufreq: intel_pstate: Enable asym capacity only when CPU SMT is not possible 
[ Upstream commit 1fedbb5894 ]

According to the description in the intel_pstate.rst documentation,
Capacity-Aware Scheduling and Energy-Aware Scheduling are only
supported on a hybrid processor without SMT. Previously, the system
used sched_smt_active() for judgment, which is not a strict condition
because users can switch it on or off via /sys at any time.

This could lead to incorrect driver settings in certain scenarios.
For example, on a CPU that supports SMT, a user can disable SMT
via the nosmt parameter to enable asym capacity, and then re-enable
SMT via /sys. In such cases, some settings in the driver would no
longer be correct.

To address this issue, replace sched_smt_active() with cpu_smt_possible(),
and only enable asym capacity when CPU SMT is not possible.

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.
