  cpufreq: intel_pstate: Reuse refresh_frequency_limits()
  cpufreq: Register notifiers with the PM QoS framework
  PM / QoS: Add support for MIN/MAX frequency constraints
  PM / QOS: Pass request type to dev_pm_qos_read_value()
  PM / QOS: Rename __dev_pm_qos_read_value() and dev_pm_qos_raw_read_value()
  PM / QOS: Pass request type to dev_pm_qos_{add|remove}_notifier()
