Hi Viresh ,
Thanks for reviewing in detail.
I will correct all comments related to coding standards in my next patch.

Also, please run checkpatch --strict next time you send patches
upstream.
Thanks for pointing out the --strict option, was not aware of that. I will
run checkpatch --strict on the next versions.

That's super *ugly*. Why don't you create a simple routine which will
set the 5 integer variables to 0 in a straight forward way ?
Yeh, will create a routine.

Remove these unnecessary casts and do:
struct powernv_smp_call_data *freq_data = data; //Name func arg as data
And then use freq_data->*.
Ok. Will do that.

May be i need a cast here, because data is unsigned long ( unlike other places
where its void *).
On building without cast, it throws me a warning.

no need of 'ret' for just this, simply do: if (!spin_trylock())...
Sure will do that.

You can't break a line after ( of a function call :)
Let it go beyond 80 columns if it has to.
May be i will try to get it inside 80 columns with a temporary variable instead

Should i make it void instead of returning int?, as i cannot do much even if it

Thanks for pointing out. Will fix in v2.
