The last two sentences describe what dev_pm_opp_calc_power() is doing.
Maybe this can be made clearer here?

This is the old dev_pm_opp_of_update_em() right?

When do you use if '(IS_ERR_OR_NULL(dev))' and when 'if(!dev)' for EM
interface functions?

In the previous version of 'chip-binning' you were using the new EM
interface em_dev_compute_costs() (1) which is now replaced by
em_recalc_and_update() -> em_compute_costs().

https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20231220110339.1065505-2-lukasz.luba@xxxxxxx

Which leaves (1) still unused.

That was why my concern back then that we shouldn't introduce EM
interfaces without a user:

https://lkml.kernel.org/r/8fc499cf-fca1-4465-bff7-a93dfd36f3c8@xxxxxxx

What happens now with em_dev_compute_costs()?
