Stephen,
Thanks for taking time to review
the series.

Yes, it could have gone either into
the cpufreq driver or l3 interconnect
provider driver. Taniya/Odelu preferred
the latter, because of the need for other
clients to vote for l3 frequencies in
the future.
What other clients are those?

GPU was supposed to be one of the
other clients that would vote for
l3.
The other option to prevent
register re-arrangement would involve
using syscons from the cpufreq node, which
really wasn't necessary since there
wasn't any register overlap between the
two drivers.
Let's not do that.

On newer EPSS hw it's no longer
required to perform the additional
hw enable check. IIRC we don't do
that on corresponding downstream
kernels as well.
It's fairly clear that we no longer perform the additional check. The
question is why that's OK.
Taniya probably would know more
about the history behind the change.
I'll dig up more info regarding ^^
and update the thread.
