[PATCH v2 0/2] cpufreq: tegra186: Fix initialization and scaling

[Aaron Kling via B4 Relay]

This series fixes an issue with shared policy per cluster not scaling
all cpus and with some cores being initialized by the subsystem.

[PATCH v2 1/2] cpufreq: tegra186: Set target frequency for all cpus in policy

[Aaron Kling via B4 Relay]

From: Aaron Kling <webgeek1234@gmail.com>

The original commit set all cores in a cluster to a shared policy, but
did not update set_target to apply a frequency change to all cores for
the policy. This caused most cores to remain stuck at their boot
frequency.

[PATCH v2 2/2] cpufreq: tegra186: Initialize all cores to max frequencies

[Aaron Kling via B4 Relay]

From: Aaron Kling <webgeek1234@gmail.com>

During initialization, the EDVD_COREx_VOLT_FREQ registers for some cores
are still at reset values and not reflecting the actual frequency. This
causes get calls to fail. Set all cores to their respective max
frequency during probe to initialize the registers to working values.

'max_rate' sounds like it's the rate itself and not the index. Perhaps have 
init_vhint_table output num_rates and calculate in probe? We should also 
handle the possibility of num_rates being 0. Otherwise looks good to me.

Thanks!
