Subject: [PATCH] cpufreq: Clarify the comment in cpufreq_set_policy()
Date: Tue, 22 Oct 2019 15:47:57 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <ec3e8e001b35c9244f6406932335d7156b611373.1571739473.git.viresh.kumar@linaro.org> (raw)

One of the responsibility of the ->verify() callback is to make sure
that the policy's min frequency is <= max frequency as this isn't
guaranteed by the QoS framework which gave us those values.

Update the comment in cpufreq_set_policy() to clarify that.
