Yeah, you're right. It's just an example. I just want to tell that the lock also protects things that are not related with clk scaling directly.

The dev cmd execution period is protected by mutex.
And actual ringing a doorbell is protected by spin lock.

Is there another reason to need clk_scaling_lock even with it?
