But, before I start reviewing this series, I have few comments.
- We weren't able to use cpufreq-dt driver for big LITTLE platforms
  earlier, as it never had multi cluster support and we wanted
  clock-sharing information via DT.
Fair enough.

- That is all fixed now.
I did not see any mention of this in the cpufreq-dt driver binding
documentation, otherwise I would have tried going this route.

Do you have any references? I'd be happy to examine what would be
necessary to go this route although, being an independent contributor,
it may take time.
You wouldn't find in cpufreq-dt documentation as its not specific to
that. I have seen you DT patches now, and you have created the OPP
tables mostly correctly. Just create the cpufreq-platform device for
cpufreq-dt instead of arm-big-little one. And it should just work.
Do you mean something along these lines? [1]

Sounds reasonable to me. However, I'd just like to reiterate that this
line of work can be pursued independently from the upstreaming of this
series.
I think this is the right time to upstream the right solution. Just
try it once, if you face lots of difficulties or issues, then we can
ofcourse see..
Sure. I didn't realize things were so close to being functional. Thanks
for the hint. I'll give it a shot next time my XU4 is free.
NOTE: Check how OPP nodes are required to be created now in
linux-next. They should be named like opp@<freq-hz>. Something I
noticed in your DTs.
I've fixed this in the branch.

Thanks again.

Cheers,

- Ben
