The devfreq monitor depends on the device to provide load information
by .get_dev_status() to calculate the next target freq.

And this will cause changing governor to simple ondemand fail
if device can't support.

Again, I think that get_dev_status is not used for all governors.
So that it cause the governor start fail. Don't check whether
.get_dev_status is NULL or not.
I'm not quite understand your point.
it is used by governor_simpleondemand.c and tegra_devfreq_governor.
get_target_freq -> devfreq_update_stats -> get_dev_status
The devfreq can add the new governor by anyone.
So these functions like devfreq_monitor_* have to support 
the governors and also must support the governor to be added
in the future.
Without checking, device can switch to ondemand governor if it does not support.

Am i missed something?

Need to handle the all points of devfreq_monitor_start() usage.
please check the tegra30-devfreq.c for this update.
