Subject: Re: [PATCH v4 2/8] ACPI: CPPC: Add cppc_get_perf() API to read
 performance controls

Hello Sumit,

Sorry for the late review.
I think it would be nice to split the patchset in 2 as handling the 
auto_sel and
min/max_perf values in the cppc_cpufreq driver might lead to more 
discussion.
I.e. the ACPI: CPPC: XXX patches should be straightforward to upstream.
This is just a personal opinion, feel free to ignore it.

NIT: I think the 'desired_perf_reg' register is mandatory, so the check 
could be removed.
