Hi Andrew-sh.Cheng, Do you know that why cannot show the patches sent from you on mailing list? Even if you sent them to linux-pm mailing list, I cannot find your patches on linux-pm's patchwork[1] and others. [1] https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-pm/list/ Could you find you patch on mailing list? Do you use git send-email when you send these patches? I used the thunderbird tool and gmail for reading the patches. When I tried to read the original source of this patch, it looks like that the body of patch is encoded. I cannot read the plain text of patch body. - When gmail, use 'Show original' - When thunderbird, use 'More -> View Source' If I'm missing something to check this patch, please let me know. I'll fix my environment. It is strange situation on my case.

I think that 'curr_freq' is proper. Yes, it is 'unsigned int'.
