A Device-A can have a (minimum) performance requirement on another
Device-B to be able to function correctly. This performance requirement
on Device-B can also change based on the current performance level of
Device-A.

The existing required-opps feature fits well to describe this need. So,
instead of limiting required-opps to point to only PM-domain devices,
allow it to point to any device.

Hey Saravana,
Thanks for taking time to post out this series.

This was already removed as a part of ^^ and is in linux-next.

I expect the series to not work as is in its current state since I
see a circular dependency here. The required-opp tables of the parent
devfreq won't be populated until we add the opp-table of the child
devfreq node while the child devfreq using passive governor would
return -EPROBE_DEFER until the parent devfreq probes.

The same applies to this patch -> https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch
/11046147/ I posted out based on your series. So we would probably have
to address the dependency here.

Thanks for the heads up.

I looked into this when I wrote the patches. I thought I handled it
correctly. Let me take another look.
