I think we should keep these checks because:

1) They shorten the execution code (there is no unnecessary call of
__cpufreq_driver_target)
2) In case my patch will be accepted, we need them to avoid continuously
increase of dbs_info->requested_freq.With my patch the requested_freq
can temporarily overcome policy->min and policy->max. __cpufreq_driver_target
will select the correct frequency (within policy->min and policy->max).
Then, dbs_cpufreq_notifier will adjust requested_freq.

I hope the logic in 2) to be acceptable.


Thanks,
Stratos
