there is still something unclear to me.

Amit, the next step should be remove this "depends on CPU_THERMAL"
line for EXYNOS driver, right?
If we do this, the exynos driver should work w/ or w/o CPU_THERMAL,
but should we have something like,
"hey, I like CPU_THERMAL, I work better with it set"?

"Select" does not work here
because it may block exynos driver when CPU_FREQ cleared.

any ideas on this?

thanks,
rui

 CPU_FREQ_TABLE depends on CPU_FREQ. Selecting
 CPU_FREQ_TABLE without checking for dependencies gives
 the following compilation warnings: warning:
 (ARCH_TEGRA_2x_SOC && ARCH_TEGRA_3x_SOC &&
 UX500_SOC_DB8500 && CPU_THERMAL && EXYNOS_THERMAL)
 selects CPU_FREQ_TABLE which has unmet direct
 dependencies (ARCH_HAS_CPUFREQ && CPU_FREQ)

Yes I will refactor the sensor code and framework registration code.
Now it is somewhat tied together.

Good idea but as Select does not enable all dependencies recursively
so we ourself needs to resolve all.  "depends on " is a easy way to do
it with just 1 macro.
BTW current exynos driver needs both CPU_FREQ and CPU_THERMAL so your
patch is fine.

Thanks,
