    - either reply below each one of them and say yes or no..
    - Or write once below many comments and say: All above comments
    are accepted.

    So, that Reviewer is assured that you haven't missed anything.

    I understand that you need these variables (I will still look how you are
    using them in next version). But they are per policy and driver isn't
    responsible for maintaining them. If they are required then cpufreq
    core must find them out and keep in struct cpufreq_policy (as they
    are policy dependent)..

    So, remove this structure from cpufreq_driver and embed variables
    directly.
