Ah OK, you did that, sorry.

So one idea is that if SCHED_CPUFREQ_RT_DL is set in flags, we don't even
need to start the loop which is quite a cost to simply notice that there's
nothing to do.

Also I don't quite agree with adding an extra pair of integer multiplications
to that loop just to get rid of the extra args.  That aside from chasing extra
pointers, of course.

Thanks,
Rafael
