As Rafael mentioned it's better to have a wrapper function to hide these
details. You should consider the fact that of_init_opp_table returns -EINVAL
if
CONFIG_PM_OPP not defined as well as when the list is invalid in the DT.
IMO we can return -ENOSYS if not implemented(i.e. !CONFIG_PM_OPP)

I didn't understood Rafael's comment as I couldn't figure out if he is just
pointing to CONFIG_** or some arch specific thing..

But it looks more obvious that he asked me something similar to what you
are saying :)


I believe so, mainly the non-DT case, since you are checking for error, it will
end up with spurious messages as the return value is -EINVAL. Hence I was
suggesting return -ENOSYS(which means Function not implemented)

Why do we need to return anything? Let that function have return type 'void'?

Hmm, don't we still need to throw error if DT has invalid OPP ?
It doesn't may sense to me if no errors is returned and still CPUFreq fails
later.

Also would it make sense to move this into it as well?

cpu->dev.of_node = of_get_cpu_node(num, NULL);


I don't quite understand what you mean here ?
