Basically, I agree to support the QoS requirement between devices.
But, I think that need to consider the multiple cases.


1. When changing the devfreq governor by user,
For example of the connection between bus_dmc/leftbus/display on patch8,
there are possible multiple cases with various devfreq governor
which is changed on the runtime by user through sysfs interface.

If users changes the devfreq governor as following:
Before,
- bus_dmc (simple_ondemand, available frequency 100/200/300/400 MHz)
--> bus_leftbus(simple_ondemand, available frequency 100/200/300/400 MHz)
----> bus_display(passive)

After changed governor of bus_dmc,
if the min_freq by interconnect requirement is 400Mhz,
- bus_dmc (powersave) : min_freq and max_freq and cur_freq is 100MHz
--> bus_leftbus(simple_ondemand) : cur_freq is 400Mhz
----> bus_display(passive)

The final frequency is 400MHz of bus_dmc
even if the min_freq/max_freq/cur_freq is 100MHz.
It cannot show the correct min_freq/max_freq through
devfreq sysfs interface.


2. When disabling the some frequency by devfreq-thermal throttling,
This patch checks the min_freq of interconnect requirement
in the exynos_bus_target() and exynos_bus_passive_target().
Also, it cannot show the correct min_freq/max_freq through
devfreq sysfs interface.

For example of bus_dmc bus,
- The available frequencies are 100MHz, 200MHz, 300MHz, 400MHz
- Disable 400MHz by devfreq-thermal throttling 
- min_freq is 100MHz
- max_freq is 300MHz
- min_freq of interconnect is 400MHz

In result, the final frequency is 400MHz by exynos_bus_target()
There are no problem for working. But, the user cannot know
reason why cur_freq is 400MHz even if max_freq is 300MHz.

Basically, update_devfreq() considers the all constraints
of min_freq/max_freq to decide the proper target frequency.


3.
I think that the exynos_bus_passive_target() is used for devfreq device
using 'passive' governor. The frequency already depends on the parent device.

If already the parent devfreq device like bus_leftbus consider
the minimum frequency of QoS requirement like interconnect,
it is not necessary. The next frequency of devfreq device
with 'passive' governor, it will apply the QoS requirement
without any additional code.
