I'm going to resent this patch because it has this reported build issue for !EM. I'll update the words there as well. BTW, for the build fix, I'm going for the v3 approach: ------------8<-------------- if (_of_has_opp_microwatt_property(dev)) { struct em_data_callback em_cb_dt = EM_DATA_CB(_get_dt_power); return em_dev_register_perf_domain(dev, nr_opp, &em_cb_dt, cpus, true); } ----------->8--------------- I don't want to introduce another dual-macro mechanism, since the type em_data_callback is not defined in !EM. I hope you are OK with this approach, if not please let me know.
