RE: [PATCH v1 1/3] scsi: ufshcd: Update the set frequency to devfreq

Please remind me what the spin lock is protecting here?

This was already established 2 lines above ?

Is this a bug fix?
devfreq_simple_ondemand_func is trying to establish the busy period,
but also uses the frequency in its calculation - which I wasn't able to understand how.
Can you add a short comment why updating current_frequency is needed?
