The Energy Model (EM) is going to support runtime modification. There
are going to be 2 EM tables which store information. This patch aims
to prepare the code to be generic and use one of the tables. The function
will no longer get a pointer to 'struct em_perf_domain' (the EM) but
instead a pointer to 'struct em_perf_state' (which is one of the EM's
tables).

Prepare em_pd_get_efficient_state() for the upcoming changes and
make it possible to re-use. Return an index for the best performance
state for a given EM table. The function arguments that are introduced
should allow to work on different performance state arrays. The caller of
em_pd_get_efficient_state() should be able to use the index either
on the default or the modifiable EM table.

I thought the 2 EM tables design is gone?

IMHO it would be less code changes and hence a more enjoyable review
experience if you would add the 'modifiable' feature to the existing EM
(1) and not add (2) and then remove (1) in [21/23].


 struct em_perf_domain {
-	struct em_perf_state *table;                <-- (1)
 	struct em_perf_table __rcu *runtime_table;  <-- (2)

s/make it possible to re-use/make it possible to be re-used ?

(3) but em_pd_get_efficient_state(struct em_perf_state *table
                                                        ^^^^^

I have explained that to some other your email: such approach would
create a patch monster, touching all drivers and frameworks, to just
make sure they still can compile. This is not the right approach.

Good catch, I'll change that.
