Thank you for the review. Do you think this patch could go through
your tree together with your patches?
I don't know Krzysztof's opinion about the patch 2/2, but
I would expect, assuming the patch itself is correct, he would
like to take it into his next/dt branch.
In the cover letter you mentioned that this is a follow up for the
Chanwoo's patchset. But are these patches really depending on it? Can
they be picked up independently?
They are not heavily dependent on Chanwoo's patches.
Yes, they can be picked up independently.
Hmmm, are you sure?
In a sense: in two phases (first the Chanwoo's changes land into
devfreq, then when Krzysztof prepares his topic branches for
arm soc, I assumed Chanwoo's patches are mainline and will be there
already).
Sure, they will apply fine but without Chanwoo's patches won't they
cause the dmc driver to use using polling mode with deferred timer
(unintended/bad behavior) instead of IRQs (current behavior) or
polling mode with delayed timer (future behavior)?
I was assuming that it will take longer, when Krzysztof is going to pick
patch 2/2, definitely after a while (and it could be also the case for
patch 1/1 if Krzysztof was going to take it).
I think there is no rush and it can go in two phases.
Good point Bartek for clarifying this. I wasn't clear in the messages.
Thank you for keeping eye on this.
Regards,
Lukasz

I just wanted to mention that the patch 1/2 was produced on the
code base which had already applied Chanwoo's patch for DMC.
If you like to take both 1/2 and 2/2 into your tree, it's good.
Thank you for having a look on this.

The DTS patch must go through arm soc, so I will take it. If it really
depends on driver changes, then it has to wait for next release.
Best regards,
Krzysztof
