Hi Thomas,

-       This driver supports software managed overclocking (BOOST).
-       It allows usage of special frequencies for Samsung Exynos
-       processors if thermal conditions are appropriate.

-       It reguires, for safe operation, thermal framework with
properly
-       defined trip points.

-       If in doubt, say N.

If I might ask, where this switch,to enable BOOST, will be moved? All
in all, I would like to be able to enable boost :-).
The intent was to have a separate boost config option for cpufreq-cpu0
driver, only available if cpufreq-cpu0 driver is selected, as done in
the other patch.
In my opinion we should have the Kconfig option to enable/disable the
CPU_FREQ_BOOST_SW and this may be used with cpufreq-cpu0 driver as I've
pointed out in the other patch.
Okay, this is how this patch series handles CPU_FREQ_BOOST_SW config option.

Thanks,
Thomas.
