Commit a365ab6b9dfb ("cpufreq: intel_pstate: Implement the
->adjust_perf() callback") caused intel_pstate to use nonzero HWP
desired values in certain usage scenarios, but it did not prevent
them from being leaked into the confugirations in which HWP desired
is expected to be 0.
The failing scenarios are switching the driver from the passive
mode to the active mode and starting a new kernel via kexec() while
intel_pstate is running in the passive mode.
To address this issue, ensure that HWP desired will be cleared on
offline and suspend/shutdown.

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.
