Thank you for the patch! Reviewed-by: Yoshihiro Shimoda <yoshihiro.shimoda.uh@renesas.com> And, I tested on R-Car H3 ES3.0 and it worked. So, Tested-by: Yoshihiro Shimoda <yoshihiro.shimoda.uh@renesas.com> # I'm not sure adding Tested-by tag is suitable for patch 1 and 4 though... > As boost modes may be unstable without increasing the CPU core voltage, > this series depends on "[PATCH 0/2] arm64: dts: renesas: Add cpu-supply > properties for DVFS"[1]. Hence I think it is better to postpone this to > v5.14. I think so. Best regards, Yoshihiro Shimoda
