Hi, I would suggest you sending such patches as reply to the earlier threads only, instead of a new chain. This will save your time.
Please explain it more. This patch needs to be first for cpufreq-dt switch to be complete. scaling_boost_freqs is available currently for exynos-cpufreq users when boost is enabled and ideally we would like it to be available immediately after the switch to cpufreq-dt.
For example, you will need to resend other patches unnecessarily if I NAK this patch :) On 06-08-15, 15:41, Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz wrote:quoted
Add cpufreq_boost_enabled_generic_attr table and use it in cpufreq-dt driver instead of cpufreq_generic_attr one when boost support is enabled. As a result scaling_boost_freqs sysfs attribute is available when cpufreq-dt driver is used and boost support is enabled.

We can't create a new generic structure every time a entry comes in. Rather we should leave the generic attr for
boost entry is rather generic one so I imagine that other cpufreq drivers that add support for boost would also like to use it. Anyway since there are no such drivers currently I agree that making a new generic structure may be premature and I will re-do this patch according to your request.
