Hi Rob,

Thanks for your review and sorry for the late response.

We have internal discussion and we agree with that this feature should
not be specific to the PCIe controller, we need to find a common way to
do this. 

But as the driver of dvfsrc is not finished the upstream, we don't have
a better solution for now, so we would like to pull back this patch and
will send another patch to disable dvfsrc by default until we find a
common solution to enable it.

Thanks.
