[v2,5/5] sched/pelt: Remove shift of thermal clock

Commit Message

Vincent Guittot Dec. 21, 2023, 3:24 p.m. UTC

The optional shift of the clock used by thermal/hw load avg has been
introduced to handle case where the signal was not always a high frequency
hw signal. Now that cpufreq provides a signal for firmware and
SW pressure, we can remove this exception and always keep this PELT signal
aligned with other signals.
Mark deprecated sched_thermal_decay_shift boot parameter.
