Merge tag 'devfreq-next-for-5.11' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/chanwoo/linux
Pull devfreq updates for 5.11 from Chanwoo Choi: 1. Update devfreq core - Add new devfreq_frequency tracepoint to show the frequency change information. - Add governor feature flag. The devfreq governor is able to set the specific flag in order to support a non-common feature. For example, if the governor supports the 'immutable' feature, don't allow user space to change the governor via sysfs. - Add governor sysfs attribute flag for each sysfs file. Prior to that the devfreq subsystem allowed all of the sysfs files to be accessed regardless of the governor type. But some sysfs fils are not supported by specific devfreq governors. In order to only allow the sysfs files supported by the governor to be accessed, clarify the access permissions of sysfs attributes according to the governor. When adding the devfreq governor, specify the available attribute information by using DEVFREQ_GOV_ATTR_* symbols. The user can read or write the sysfs attributes in accordance to the specified access permissions. - Clean-up the code to reduce duplication for the devfreq tracepoint and to remove redundant governor_name field from struct devfreq. 2. Update exynos-bus.c devfreq driver - Add interconnect API support to the Samsung Exynos Bus Frequency driver, exynos-bus.c. Complementing the devfreq driver with interconnect functionality allows to ensure that the QoS requirements regarding devices accessing the system memory (e.g. video processing devices) will be met and allows to avoid issues like DMA underrun. 3. Update tegra devfreq driver - Add interconnect support and OPP interface to tegra30-devfreq.c. Also, it is to guarantee the QoS requirement of some devices like the display controller. - Move tegra20-devfreq.c from drivers/devfreq/ into drivers/memory/tegra/ in order to use the more proper monitoring feature such as EMC_STAT which is located in drivers/memory/tegra/. - Separate the configuration information for different SoCs in tegra30-devfrqe.c. The tegra30-devfreq.c had been supporting both tegra30-actmon and tegra124-actmon devices. In order to use the more correct configuration data, separate them. - Use dev_err_probe() to handle the deferred probe error in tegra30-devfreq.c. 4.
