[PATCH v4 0/8] cpufreq: use cpufreq-cpu0 driver for exynos based platforms

Hi Thomas,

In general the design already looks good, but I commented on several
implementation issues I found in particular patches (and some minor
nitpicks while at it).

Please let me know whether you have time to work on addressing them.
Otherwise we can just let me, Lukasz or someone else address remaining
issues.

Best regards,
Tomasz
