Hi,

I would suggest you sending such patches as reply to the earlier
threads only, instead of a new chain. This will save your time.

For example, you will need to resend other patches unnecessarily if I
NAK this patch :)

This isn't scalable. We can't create a new generic structure every time
a entry comes in. Rather we should leave the generic attr for
cpufreq-dt and do something like this in the cpufreq-dt driver (And
that patch should rather go via cpufreq tree and not ARM SoC)..

Please explain it more.  This patch needs to be first for cpufreq-dt
switch to be complete.  scaling_boost_freqs is available currently
for exynos-cpufreq users when boost is enabled and ideally we would
like it to be available immediately after the switch to cpufreq-dt.

boost entry is rather generic one so I imagine that other cpufreq
drivers that add support for boost would also like to use it.

Anyway since there are no such drivers currently I agree that
making a new generic structure may be premature and I will re-do
this patch according to your request.

Best regards,

I wasn't talking about the ordering of the patches here, but when to
send patches.

So, you now sent these patches again, but what you could have done
is: only send the first patch in reply to the earlier thread. And ask
if it looks fine. If yes, resend the whole series properly or keep
fixing there only..

That makes things really fast. You don't have to resend the series and
people wouldn't stay away from it. I stayed away from this series to
find enough available time to see your 6 patches. Had it been just a
reply, I would have replied immediately like now.

Look at how updated versions in the same mail chain in case of OPP
series..
