From: Sean Paul <[email protected]> Lower the RPS thresholds and make them symmetric. This patch increases the rate of change of the GPU clock, allowing it to clock up more quickly, and more importantly, clock down when necessary. The problem this patch solves is that a heavy workload would inflate the clock, and then the clock would stick high when the workload went away because the down threshold was too high. This should improve our thermals and power.
BUG=chrome-os-partner:11009 TEST=Tested with the PBS koala video, play it along with a GL demo to get the clock up to 1150MHz. Remove the GL demo workload and ensure the clock goes back down to 350MHz.
