Subject: [PATCH] cpufreq: use cashed resolved frequency
Date: Tue, 18 Nov 2025 12:16:06 +0530
Message-Id: <20251118064606.2777035-1-kaushlendra.kumar@intel.com>
Precedence: bulk
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Return a previously resolved frequency when the requested target
matches the policy cache to avoid repeated frequency-table lookups
This implementation reuses the existing cached_target_freq and
cached_resolved_idx fields maintained by __resolve_freq() and does not
introduce new state.
