PM / devfreq: Add common sysfs interfaces
Device specific sysfs interface /sys/devices/.../power/devfreq_* - governor R: name of governor - cur_freq R: current frequency - polling_interval R: polling interval in ms given with devfreq profile W: update polling interval. - central_polling R: 1 if polling is managed by devfreq framework Signed-off-by: MyungJoo Ham <myungjoo.ham@samsung.com> Signed-off-by: Kyungmin Park <kyungmin.park@samsung.com> Reviewed-by: Mike Turquette <mturquette@ti.com> Acked-by: Kevin Hilman <khilman@ti.com> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

+What: /sys/class/devfreq/.../
+Date: September 2011
+Contact: MyungJoo Ham <myungjoo.ham@samsung.com>
+Description:
+ Provide a place in sysfs for the devfreq objects.
+ This allows accessing various devfreq specific variables.
+ The name of devfreq object denoted as ... is same as the
+ name of device using devfreq.
+
+What: /sys/class/devfreq/.../governor
+Date: September 2011
+Contact: MyungJoo Ham <myungjoo.ham@samsung.com>
+Description:
+ The /sys/class/devfreq/.../governor shows the name of the
+ governor used by the corresponding devfreq object.
+
+What: /sys/class/devfreq/.../cur_freq
+Date: September 2011
+Contact: MyungJoo Ham <myungjoo.ham@samsung.com>
+Description:
+ The /sys/class/devfreq/.../cur_freq shows the current
+ frequency of the corresponding devfreq object.
+
+What: /sys/class/devfreq/.../central_polling
+Date: September 2011
+Contact: MyungJoo Ham <myungjoo.ham@samsung.com>
+Description:
+ The /sys/class/devfreq/.../central_polling shows whether
+ the devfreq ojbect is using devfreq-provided central
+ polling mechanism or not.
+
+What: /sys/class/devfreq/.../polling_interval
+Date: September 2011
+Contact: MyungJoo Ham <myungjoo.ham@samsung.com>
+Description:
+ The /sys/class/devfreq/.../polling_interval shows and sets
+ the requested polling interval of the corresponding devfreq
+ object. The values are represented in ms. If the value is
+ less than 1 jiffy, it is considered to be 0, which means
+ no polling. This value is meaningless if the governor is
+ not polling; thus. If the governor is not using
+ devfreq-provided central polling
+ (/sys/class/devfreq/.../central_polling is 0), this value
+ may be useless.
