Dear Krzysztof,

Thanks for your comments.
Pardon me for not being familiar with upstream rules and my late reply.
I was supposed to have an internal review before submission and I will.

Sure, I will update it in the next version.

Sorry, I missed it and I will fix it in the next version.

Thanks for your suggestion of title.
Or should I use the origin title "Binding for MediaTek's CPUFreq
driver"?

No, mediatek-cpufreq is performing in kernel driver rather than on
hardware.
On the other hand, mediatek-cpufreq-hw is performing on hardware.
That's why "hw" is present in its name.

Except for SoC, there's no requirement of hardware binding for
mediatek-cpufreq.
mediatek-cpufreq recognizes the compatible of Mediatek SoC while
probing.

As mentioned above, only compatible of SoC is required for mediatek-
cpufreq.

Yes, all of these properties exist in the original bindings.
operating-point-v2 is used to determine the voltage and frequency of
dvfs which is further utilized by mediatek-cpufreq here.

Sure, I'll remove description and add const value in the next version.
