Hi Rafael,

__cpufreq_driver_target() must not pass target frequency beyond the limits of
current policy.

Today most of cpufreq platform drivers are doing this check in their target
routines. Why not move it to __cpufreq_driver_target().

I wanted to get your opinion on this before making changes in all driver files.
That's why this is an RFC.

I'd prefer to apply the patch below before changing the drviers.

Thanks,
