Most of the drivers do following in their ->target_index() routines:

	struct cpufreq_freqs freqs;
	freqs.old = old freq...
	freqs.new = new freq...

	cpufreq_notify_transition(policy, &freqs, CPUFREQ_PRECHANGE);

	/* Change rate here */

	cpufreq_notify_transition(policy, &freqs, CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE);

This is replicated over all cpufreq drivers today and there doesn't exists a
good enough reason why this shouldn't be moved to cpufreq core instead.

Earlier patches have added support in cpufreq core to do cpufreq notification on
frequency change, this one removes it from this driver.

Some related minor cleanups are also done along with it.

Sorry for misoperation.

Hi Viresh:

Hi Viresh:

                One concern. Target() callback may return before changing
cpufreq actually due to some check failures. After this change, prechange
event will be triggered when these check failures take place. I am not sure
whether this should be took into account.

No Problem...

Yes, if you see the first patch of this series, it takes this into
account.. In case
target() failed and returned an error, we simply notify the POST CHANGE
notification with old frequencies instead of new ones. I believe that would be
enough..

This is exactly what acpi-cpufreq and others are doing currently.

Hope I answered your question well?

Yes, I have seen it but I missed the following two patches because they
are not in the linux-pm tree. You moved the cpufreq_frequency_table_target()
to cpufreq core and before notifying PRE CHANGE notification. The major
check has been done. Now I think it's ok. Thanks for explanation.
