SubjectRE: [EXT] Re: [PATCH 2/2] cpufreq: dt-platdev: Support building cpufreq platdev driver as module
Date
Hi Aurelien,

I'm not sure why we need to make cpufreq-dt-platdev autoloading, does it make sense? As I understand it we need to actively modprobe cpufreq-dt-platdev, why not?



BRs,
Zhipeng
