Why should we return UINT_MAX here? We should return target_freq, no ? > Suggested-by: Rafael J.

B. with ->target() callback, ONLY these should be allowed to provide the ->resolve_freq() callback and no one else. And so I would suggest adding an additional check in cpufreq_register_driver() to catch incorrect usage of this callback. -- viresh
