I know, that we shall not look into the future. But this method will be
used when somebody would like to enable boost from kernel. Let's say
new governor or such :-).
I can remove this and add it later, but I think, that it is safer to
add it straightaway.

This function explicitly follows current logic of acpi-cpufreq.c.
I would like to avoid modifying legacy/working code as much as
possible (especially when I hadn't yet received any feedback about
acpi-cpufreq.c file changes).

Maybe I don't get the big picture, but why we cannot iterate
through possible CPUs? At least one shall have valid policy and
freq_table combination.
I've already proposed list of all policies (at v1), but we decided to
abandon this idea.
In which way list is better than iteration through all possible per-cpu
variables, which store policies?

Yes, you are right. We can check if boost is supported and enabled
inside this function.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm using scripts for tests which run
simultaneously and enables/disables boost feature. I don't recall if
there is a lock at sysfs, which would prevent from simultaneous write
to the "boost" sysfs attribute.
I will doubble check that.

I wanted to add those #defines to the place where other similar ones
are placed.
I can put it to freq_table.c.

The logic is as follow:
- cpufreq_driver exports .attr field. When driver supports boost then
two attributes are exported (even when boost is not enabled, but
supported):
- scaling_available_frequencies (only normal frequencies - this
attribute is unchanged)
- scaling_boost_frequencies - list possible boost frequencies.
When boost is not supported - then only scaling_available_frequencies
is exported (as it is done now).
Please refer to patch 3/3.
