On closer inspection I think this applies to the SCPI DVFS protocol
too[1]. AIUI the fact that neither is wired up to a devfreq driver yet
is merely due to lack of demand and suitable systems to develop/test on
so far - the panfrost devfreq code is only now looking like the first
viable upstream use-case ;)
