Yeah, I thought about that while writing this patchset and coverletter. But had it not been required for ACPI, I would have done it differently for the arch-topology code. Maybe direct calling of arch-topology routine from cpufreq core. I wanted to get rid of the policy notifiers completely but I couldn't find a better way of doing it for ACPI stuff. > > Boot tested on my x86 PC and ARM hikey board.

In the exceptional case where nobody finds anything wrong with the patches (highly unlikely), do you want me to resend with reordering or you can reorder them while applying? There are no dependencies between those patches anyway. -- viresh
