Scaling regulator voltage as a function of clock frequency is a common
power saving technique. It is often referred to as dynamic voltage &
frequency scaling (DVFS). The common clock framework has clock
rate-change notifier (pre & post) which provide a convenient hook for
scaling voltage whenever clk_set_rate is called.
The first patch in the series provides helper functions for drivers that
wish to scale voltage through the clock rate-change notifiers. The
approach taken is that the driver does not care about the details of the
OPP table, nor does it care about handling the voltage regulator
directly. The driver only has a pointer to the struct clk object; the
other details are hidden in the helper functions.
The second patch provides a CPUfreq-centric helper, built on top of the
first one. This is primarly to help with the struct
cpufreq_frequency_table bits and latency calculation.
The final patch in the series converts the cpufreq-cpu0 driver to use
these functions. Other cpufreq drivers can be converted later.
There are not many cases of DVFS usage in the kernel; vendors often keep
these out-of-tree. By providing a common approach using the clock rate
change notifiers this series hopes to consolidate code across drivers
and encourage vendors to upstream their DVFS bits.

1.8.1.2
This patch builds on "clk: notifier handler for dynamic voltage scaling"
by adding a CPUfreq-specific helper function for registering a clock
rate-change notifier to scale regulator voltage as a function of clock
rate.
In particular this patch creates an instance of struct
cpufreq_frequency_table and also calculate the voltage scaling latency,
both of which are returned to the caller for use in the CPUfreq driver.

1.8.1.2
Removes direct handling of OPP tables and voltage regulators by calling
of_clk_cpufreq_notifier_handler, introduced by commit "clk: cpufreq
helper for voltage scaling".
In the future this can help consolidate code found across similar
CPUfreq drivers.

1.8.1.2
This patch provides helper functions for drivers that wish to scale
voltage through the clock rate-change notifiers. The approach taken is
that the driver does not care about the details of the OPP table, nor
does it care about handling the voltage regulator directly. The driver
only has a pointer to the struct clk object; the other details are
hidden in the helper functions.
The assumptions about DT structure mostly come from the cpufreq-cpu0
binding. Since this is a helper function it does not have a binding
document of its own.
A similar patch using platform data instead of DT was proposed in
February[1].

Its only related to cpufreq-cpu0 and to handle dependencies well they
should go through a single tree.. Probably your tree is the right place for
now. Rafael?

Yes, the entire series should go through the Mike's tree I think.

As stage 1 of the transition, I dont have any complaints, but for SoC
level, at least on OMAP, it is not just regulator and clock, we have
additional tweaks to do - like ABB, AVS etc.
What would you suggest as the strategy to introduce SoC specific
handlers for voltage notifiers that can co-exist with this?

for example - we should not depend on cpufreq in a generic clock based
dvfs approach. we would like to allow devfreq also to transition to this.
