I am not sure I understand what performance control mean here. Can you please
elaborate a bit more on that ? For example, with current code and understanding,
a cpufreq policy belongs to a group of CPUs which change their frequency
together, which also mean that they change their performance level together and
so I am not able to understand what's going on here. Sorry about that.

What kind of hardware configuration doesn't work with this ?
