This patch does that.

And L0 has been defined in exynos-cpufreq.h But I shall leave it to you and Lukasz to decide if it is worth the while. > + {0, L1, 1400 * 1000}, > + {0, L2, 1300 * 1000}, > + {0, L3, 1200 * 1000}, > + {0, L4, 1100 * 1000}, > + {0, L5, 1000 * 1000}, > + {0, L6, 900 * 1000}, > + {0, L7, 800 * 1000}, > + {0, L8, 700 * 1000}, > + {0, L9, 600 * 1000}, > + {0, L10, 500 * 1000}, > + {0, L11, 400 * 1000}, > + {0, L12, 300 * 1000}, > + {0, L13, 200 * 1000}, > + {0, 0, CPUFREQ_TABLE_END}, > }; > Reviewed-by: Gautham R Shenoy <ego@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> -- Thanks and Regards gautham. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe cpufreq" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
