Currently, we make SMP call on every frequency set request to get the physical 'CPU ID' and 'CLUSTER ID' for the target CPU. This change optimizes the repeated calls by storing the physical IDs and the per core frequency register offset for all CPUs during boot. Later this info is used directly when required to set the frequency or read it from ACTMON counters.

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 Restructured Text 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.
