A recently reported issue highlighted that the cached requested_freq is not guaranteed to stay in sync with policy->cur. If the platform changes the actual CPU frequency after the governor sets one (e.g. due to platform-specific frequency scaling) and a re-sync occurs later, policy->cur may diverge from requested_freq. This can lead to incorrect behavior in the conservative governor. For example, the governor may assume the CPU is already running at the maximum frequency and skip further increases even though there is still headroom. Avoid this by resetting the cached requested_freq to policy->cur on detecting a change in policy limits.
