Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] cpufreq: stats: clear statistics

From: Markus Mayer <[email protected]>

This series lets the user clear the CPUfreq stats by writing to a new
sysfs attribute.

Changes since v1:
- add new cpufreq_freq_attr_wr_perm() macro for write-only
attributes (because this is a separate commit, this patch has
turned into a series)
- remove the Kconfig option, compiling the code unconditionally
- remove show_reset()
- cpufreq_stats_clear_table() takes a struct cpufreq_stats * as
argument rather than a struct cpufreq_policy *

For v1, see https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/11/3/581.

With the new attribute type, it is possible to create write-only
CPUfreq attributes.

Also there is no need to define a _perm variant here, and then you can avoid
sending 0200 as argument as well.

Just drop the perm argument and this patch looks fine as well.

shouldn't this be _wo_perm ?

Also, I wouldn't mind doing this in the second patch itself.
