The intel_pstate CPU frequency scaling driver does not use policy->cur and it is 0. When the CPU frequency is outdated arch_freq_get_on_cpu() will default to the nominal clock frequency when its call to cpufreq_quick_getpolicy_cur returns the never updated 0. Thus, the listed frequency might be outside of currently set limits. Some users are complaining about the high reported frequency, albeit stale, when their system is idle and/or it is above the reduced maximum they have set. This patch will maintain policy_cur for the intel_pstate driver at the current minimum CPU frequency.

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.
