Use Intel Thread Director classification to update the IPC class of a
task. Implement the arch_update_ipcc() interface of the scheduler.

Changes since v2:
 * Removed the implementation of arch_has_ipc_classes().

Changes since v1:
 * Adjusted the result the classification of Intel Thread Director to start
   at class 1. Class 0 for the scheduler means that the task is
   unclassified.
 * Redefined union hfi_thread_feedback_char_msr to ensure all
   bit-fields are packed. (PeterZ)
 * Removed CONFIG_INTEL_THREAD_DIRECTOR. (PeterZ)
 * Shortened the names of the functions that implement IPC classes.
 * Removed argument smt_siblings_idle from intel_hfi_update_ipcc().

Wouldn't it be better to return the adjusted value from this function
and let the caller store it where appropriate?

It doesn't look like it is necessary to pass the task_struct pointer to it.

Judging from this patch alone, yes, it does not make much sense to pass a
task_struct as argument. In patch 21, however, this function uses various
members of task_struct and makes it more convenient to have it as argument,
no?

I'm not convinced about this, but anyway it is better to combine the
two patches in such cases IMO.

The way it is done now confuses things from my perspective.

Right, I structured the patchset to have the additions to task_struct in
separate patches. This made it less clear for intel_hfi.c

Would it be acceptable if I kept void intel_hfi_update_ipcc(struct
task_struct *curr) and added a static function u32 intel_hfi_get_ipcc(void)
to return the hardware classification?

Otherwise, I would need to add three different accessors for task_struct
so that the HFI driver can retrieve the auxiliary members from patch 21.

Thanks and BR,
Ricardo
