Waitboost (when SLPC is enabled) results in a H2G message. This can result
in thousands of messages during a stress test and fill up an already full
CTB. There is no need to request for boost if min softlimit is equal or
greater than it.
v2: Add the tracing back, and check requested freq
in the worker thread (Tvrtko)
v3: Check requested freq in dec_waiters as well
v4: Only check min_softlimit against boost_freq. Limit this
optimization for server parts for now.
v5: min_softlimit can be greater than boost (Ashutosh)
