Sorry for the confusion. I make the devfreq-testing-passive-gov[1]
branch based on latest devfreq-next branch.
[1] https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/chanwoo/linux.git/log/?h=devfreq-testing-passive-gov

First of all, if possible, I want to test them[1] with your patches in this series.
And then if there are no any problem, please let me know. After confirmed from you,
I'll send the patches of devfreq-testing-passive-gov[1] branch.
How about that?
