Is there any reason this can't be a module?
We do not have any use cases where we need to support it as module.
Ok, so it could easily be tristate then? Why not allow it?
I have checked other vendors CPUfreq drivers and those too support only
"bool".

Yes, they could change and that was the reason to introduce the offsets.
This was discussed earlier too with Sudeep and was to add them.

This is only used once? Maybe it could be removed.

And this is only used during probe to figure out the supported
frequencies. So we definitely don't need to store around the registers
after probe in an array of iomem pointers. The only one that we need
after probe is the one below.

As these address offsets could change, so I am of the opinion to leave
them as it is.

Why can't we avoid the indirection here and store the perf_state pointer
in probe? Then we don't have to indirect through a table to perform the
register write.
As the offsets could change and that was the reason to add this.
With fast switching we can avoid incurring any extra instructions, so
please make another iomem pointer in the cpufreq_qcom struct just for
writing the index or if possible, just pass the iomem pointer that
points to the REG_PERF_STATE as the policy->driver_data variable here.
Then we have the address in hand without any extra load. If my
understanding is correct, we don't need to keep around anything besides
this register address anyway so we should be able to just load it and
write it immediately.
The c->reg_bases[] is just an index to the updated bases addresses. I am
not clear as to why it would incur an extra instruction.
The below code would already take care of it.
