Hi Rafael, __cpufreq_driver_target() must not pass target frequency beyond the limits of current policy. Today most of cpufreq platform drivers are doing this check in their target routines. Why not move it to __cpufreq_driver_target(). I wanted to get your opinion on this before making changes in all driver files. That's why this is an RFC.
