101dev_pm_opp_init_cpufreq_table - cpufreq framework typically is initialized with
102 cpufreq_frequency_table_cpuinfo which is provided with the list of
103 frequencies that are available for operation. This function provides
104 a ready to use conversion routine to translate the OPP layer's internal
105 information about the available frequencies into a format readily
106 providable to cpufreq.
107
108 WARNING: Do not use this function in interrupt context.
109
110 Example:
111 soc_pm_init()
112 {
113 /* Do things */
114 r = dev_pm_opp_init_cpufreq_table(dev, &freq_table);
115 if (!r)
116 cpufreq_frequency_table_cpuinfo(policy, freq_table);
117 /* Do other things */
118 }
119
120 NOTE: This function is available only if CONFIG_CPU_FREQ is enabled in
121 addition to CONFIG_PM_OPP.
