Hi Chanwoo,

This patch series breaks UFS support on modern Qualcomm platforms
(e.g. MSM8996).

Prior to this series the call to devm_devfreq_add_device() would
return ok even though the ufshcd device does not come with a opp
table. Afaict the code then relies on the devfreq code to target 0 and
MAX_INT (see ufshcd_devfreq_target()), to switch between a "high" and
"low" frequency.

I'm quite skeptical of the ufshcd code, so can you please confirm if
this usage of the devfreq interface is valid or not?

PS. If I do register some frequencies (and hack up
ufshcd_devfreq_target() accordingly) this works again, but the "high"
and "low" currently affects two clocks with different frequencies, so
I'm not sure how to properly describe the two clocks frequencies.
Should I just map "high"/"low" of the primary clock to "high"/"low"
frequencies of the secondary clock?

Regards,
Bjorn
