In the previous versions the driver was in drivers/devfreq/,
that's why they have this prefix.

So I will use depends int this case

Actually we can skip both governors from here.

OK

There are these 4 options which the driver depends on:
         depends on ARCH_EXYNOS
         depends on DDR
         depends on PM_DEVFREQ
         depends on PM_DEVFREQ_EVENT

Should I merged them into one, two lines? like below:
a)
depends on (ARCH_EXYNOS && DDR && PM_DEVFREQ && PM_DEVFREQ_EVENT)
b) grouped into two sets
depends on (ARCH_EXYNOS && DDR)
depends on (PM_DEVFREQ && PM_DEVFREQ_EVENT)
c) grouped by pm_devfreq only
depends on ARCH_EXYNOS
depends on DDR
depends on (PM_DEVFREQ && PM_DEVFREQ_EVENT)

Good question, I will move it below this 'if' statement.
