The design of the cpufreq governor API is not very straightforward, as struct cpufreq_governor provides only one callback to be invoked from different code paths for different purposes. The purpose it is invoked for is determined by its second "event" argument, causing it to act as a "callback multiplexer" of sorts. Unfortunately, that leads to extra complexity in governors, some of which implement the ->governor() callback as a switch statement that simply checks the event argument and invokes a separate function to handle that specific event. That extra complexity can be eliminated by replacing the all-purpose ->governor() callback with a family of callbacks to carry out specific governor operations: initialization and exit, start and stop and policy limits updates. That also turns out to reduce the code size too, so do it. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com> Acked-by: Viresh Kumar <viresh.kumar@linaro.org>
