Thank you for pointing it out.  Do you mean that even if
dev_pm_opp_of_cpumask_add_table returns

an error, dev_pm_opp_get_opp_count may still return count > 0 because
someone may call dev_pm_opp_add

to add OPP to cpu succcessfully at somewhere else?
Yes.

There are two ways we can add OPPs today:

- Statically via device tree. This is what
dev_pm_opp_of_cpumask_add_table() tries to do.

- Dynamically via call to dev_pm_opp_add(), which I described earlier.

What failed here is the static way of adding OPPs, we still need to
check if OPPs were added dynamically.

Thank you for shedding light on this.

I will send a V2 patch which only check the return error -EPROBE_DEFER.

Thanks,

Quanyang
