If fast_switch_possible flag is set by the scaling driver, the governor is free to select fast_switch function even if adjust_perf is set. Some scaling drivers which use adjust_perf don't set fast_switch thinking that the governor would never fall back to fast_switch. But the governor can fall back to fast_switch even in runtime if frequency invariance is disabled due to some reason. This could crash the kernel if the driver didn't set the fast_switch function pointer. Therefore, fail driver registration if it has adjust_perf without fast_switch. Suggested-by: Rafael J.

README
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.
