Replace 1.25 headroom in apply_dvfs_headroom() with better dynamic logic. Instead of the magical 1.25 headroom, use the new approximate_util_avg() to provide headroom based on the dvfs_update_delay; which is the period at which the cpufreq governor will send DVFS updates to the hardware. Add a new percpu dvfs_update_delay that can be cheaply accessed whenever apply_dvfs_headroom() is called. We expect cpufreq governors that rely on util to drive its DVFS logic/algorithm to populate these percpu variables. schedutil is the only such governor at the moment. The behavior of schedutil will change as the headroom will be less than 1.25 for most systems as the rate_limit_us is usually short.
