Subject: Re: [PATCH v2 0/2] AMD Pstate driver fixes
Forgot to mention the v2 changes,
v2 changes:
* Add reported-by tags (Gautham)
* Modify patch 2 to use amd_pstate_update_perf (Mario)
* Modify commit name for patch 1 (Gautham)
* Modify commit message for patch 2, from scaling_min/max_freq to
just scaling_max_freq, as scaling_min_freq still needs some debugging
to work correctly with active mode.
Regards,
Dhananjay
