Sure, I understand. It was just a heads up becasue in this case, it's not only an updated version of the feature, it's a throw away and rewrite. > While not trying to speak for Nico, in the Linaro kernel we're trying > to increase testing of under-development features (e.g. device tree, > DVFS, etc.) after they've had a few review rounds upstream.

Again, I just wanted the Linaro kernel maintainers to know that a this implementation of DVFS will not be getting anywhere near upstream. Whether you choose to include it into your tree is entirely up to you.
