After applying "PM / OPP: Use list_for_each_entry_reverse instead of
list_for_each_entry",
cpufreq table is sorted int descending order. So
exynos_sort_descend_freq_table
doesn't need anymore.

What I am more focused is on: Why do we need to worry about order at
all in the first place.

Okay, above comment says something about it but I couldn't understand
what's the logic behind that. Why do we need same order as of clock
controller. Please point out relevant code pieces as well..

@Amit: Your comments on this ?

Hi Viresh/Jonghwan,

In the frequency table dts file, the frequencies are arranged in
descending order which maps 1 to 1 with other frequency parameter to
be calculated and programmed in some registers.
But the OPP library works by generating the frequencies in ascending
order which breaks the above logic. Ideally i should expect frequency
values in same order as what is supplied.
So OPP library should not change the order or should take input flags
flags like,
dev_pm_opp_init_cpufreq_table(TABLE_ORDER_ASCEND|
TABLE_ORDER_DESCEND|TABLE_ORDER_ORIGINAL )

Thanks,
Amit Daniel

Looks a good idea :)

This is what I wrote in another thread:

What I would recommend is, use .driver_data field to hold what has to
be written to hardware for any frequency. And then simply use
driver_data instead of index.
