While the cpuinfo.max_freq value doesn't really matter for intel_pstate in the active mode, in the passive mode it is used by governors as the maximum physical frequency of the CPU and the results of governor computations generally depend on it. Also it is made available to user space via sysfs and it should match the current HW configuration. For this reason, make intel_pstate update cpuinfo.max_freq for all CPUs if it detects a global change of turbo frequency settings from "disable" to "enable" or the other way associated with a _PPC change notification from the platform firmware. Note that policy_is_inactive(), cpufreq_cpu_acquire(), cpufreq_cpu_release(), and cpufreq_set_policy() need to be made available to it for this purpose.

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.
