Hi everyone,

I've put together an integration test branch:

https://github.com/wens/linux/commits/mt8183-cpufreq-cci-svs-test

This branch is based on next-20220422 and includes the following series:

- ANX7625 DPI support v2
  https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220422084720.959271-1-xji@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/
- MTK SVS v24
  https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220420102044.10832-1-roger.lu@xxxxxxxxxxxx/
- MTK cpufreq v4
  https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220422075239.16437-1-rex-bc.chen@xxxxxxxxxxxx/
- PM / devfreq core patches from
  http://git.kernel.org/chanwoo/h/devfreq-testing
  PM / devfreq: Export devfreq_get_freq_range symbol within devfreq
  PM / devfreq: Add cpu based scaling support to passive governor
  PM / devfreq: passive: Reduce duplicate code when passive_devfreq case
  PM / devfreq: passive: Update frequency when start governor
- CCI devfreq v2
  https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220408052150.22536-1-johnson.wang@xxxxxxxxxxxx/

And some patches of my own to fix some errors. See the last handful of
patches including and after the fixup! one.

This was tested on Juniper (Acer Chromebook Spin 311) that has MT8183.
Looking at the mcu_*_sel clocks from /sys/kernel/debug/clk/clk_summary ,
it does seem like things are happening, though I'm not sure how to
thoroughly test this, especially SVS.

Hope this unblocks things for everyone involved.
