[ Upstream commit d394abcb12bb1a6f309c1221fdb8e73594ecf1b4 ]
Resolving a frequency to an efficient one should not transgress
policy->max (which can be set for thermal reason) and policy->min.
Currently, there is possibility where scaling_cur_freq can exceed
scaling_max_freq when scaling_max_freq is an inefficient frequency.
Add a check to ensure that resolving a frequency will respect
policy->min/max.

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.
