Hi,

Absolutely, I agree this approach.
But, I add some comments on below. please check them.

In this function, the base device is passive devfreq device.
So, I think that better to define the 'parent_opp_table' instead of 'opp_table'
indicating the OPP table of parent devfreq device. And better to define
just 'opp_table' instead of 'c_opp_table' indicating the passive devfreq device.
- opp_table -> parent_opp_table
- c_opp_table -> opp_table

Ditto. I think that better to define the variables as following:
- opp -> parent_opp
- c_cpp -> opp

devfreq_passive_get_target_freq() is called frequently for DVFS support.
I think that you have to add 'struct opp_table *opp_table' instance to
'struct devfreq'
and then get 'opp_table' instance in the devfreq_add_device().

devfreq_add_device() already get the OPP information by using
dev_pm_opp_get_suspend_opp_freq().
You can add following code nearby dev_pm_opp_get_suspend_opp_freq() in
devfreq_add_device().
- devfreq->opp_table = dev_pm_opp_get_opp_table(dev);
