Tasks that wake up from in_iowait frequently will have a io_boost associated with them, which counts iowait wakeups and only boosts when it seems to improve the per-task throughput. The patch is intended to replace the current iowait boosting strategy, implemented in both schedutil and intel_pstate which boost the CPU for iowait wakeups on the rq. The primary benefits are: 1. EAS can take the io boost into account. 2. Boosting is limited when it doesn't seem to improve throughput. 3. io boost is being carried with the task when it migrates. This is implemented by observing the iowait wakeups for an interval. The boost is divided into 8 levels. If the task achieves the required number of iowait wakeups per interval it's boost level is increased. To reflect that we can't expect an increase of iowait wakeups linear to the applied boost (the time the task spends in iowait isn't decreased by boosting) we scale the intervals. Intervals for the lower boost levels are shorter, also allowing for a faster ramp up. If multiple tasks are io-boosted their boost will be max-aggregated per rq. The energy calculations of EAS have been adapted to reflect this.
