Hello, Now that cpufreq core supports taking QoS requests for min/max cpu frequencies, lets migrate rest of the users to using them instead of the policy notifiers.
The CPUFREQ_NOTIFY and CPUFREQ_ADJUST events of the policy notifiers are removed as a result, but we have to add CPUFREQ_CREATE_POLICY and CPUFREQ_REMOVE_POLICY events to it for the acpi stuff specifically. So the policy notifiers aren't completely removed. Boot tested on my x86 PC and ARM hikey board. Nothing looked broken :) This has already gone through build bot for a few days now. -- viresh Viresh Kumar (10): cpufreq: Add policy create/remove notifiers video: sa1100fb: Remove cpufreq policy notifier video: pxafb: Remove cpufreq policy notifier arch_topology: Use CPUFREQ_CREATE_POLICY instead of CPUFREQ_NOTIFY thermal: cpu_cooling: Switch to QoS requests instead of cpufreq notifier powerpc: macintosh: Switch to QoS requests instead of cpufreq notifier cpufreq: powerpc_cbe: Switch to QoS requests instead of cpufreq notifier ACPI: cpufreq: Switch to QoS requests instead of cpufreq notifier cpufreq: Remove CPUFREQ_ADJUST and CPUFREQ_NOTIFY policy notifier events Documentation: cpufreq: Update policy notifier documentation Documentation/cpu-freq/core.txt | 16 +-- drivers/acpi/processor_driver.c | 44 ++++++++- drivers/acpi/processor_perflib.c | 106 +++++++++----------- drivers/acpi/processor_thermal.c | 81 ++++++++------- drivers/base/arch_topology.c | 2 +- drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq.c | 51 ++++------ drivers/cpufreq/ppc_cbe_cpufreq.c | 19 +++- drivers/cpufreq/ppc_cbe_cpufreq.h | 8 ++ drivers/cpufreq/ppc_cbe_cpufreq_pmi.c | 96 +++++++++++------- drivers/macintosh/windfarm_cpufreq_clamp.c | 77 ++++++++++----- drivers/thermal/cpu_cooling.c | 110 +++++---------------- drivers/video/fbdev/pxafb.c | 21 ---- drivers/video/fbdev/pxafb.h | 1 - drivers/video/fbdev/sa1100fb.c | 27 ----- drivers/video/fbdev/sa1100fb.h | 1 - include/acpi/processor.h | 22 +++-- include/linux/cpufreq.h | 4 +- 17 files changed, 327 insertions(+), 359 deletions(-) -- 2.21.0.rc0.269.g1a574e7a288b
