Subject: [PATCH 4/5] cpufreq: schedutil: convert to kthread_create_worker
Date: Sat, 29 Aug 2026 16:17:38 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260829161738.19639-1-include@grrlz.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260829161150.16301-1-include@grrlz.net>

From: Bradley Morgan <brads@mainlining.org>

Embedding a kthread_worker and running kthread_worker_fn yourself is
the old way. Convert cpufreq_schedutil to kthread_create_worker(),
dropping the separate thread pointer.

This is part of removing the worker->task self-assignment in
kthread_worker_fn().
