Hi Oded,


the commit in the subject (5a8888a3119eb5b67f6e90605be9ed2e04807126)
somehow causes degraded CPU (!) performance on my Kaveri box. E.g. a
piglit run takes about 15% longer, and I suspect the same is true for
e.g. compiling the kernel, though I haven't measured that explicitly.

In addition to the measurably worse performance, the commit causes the
CPU fan to stay significantly quieter during CPU-bound tasks, so maybe
the commit somehow causes the CPU not to achieve turbo clocks or
something like that.

I'm attaching my .config. I don't see any difference in dmesg with or
without the commit.
