Re: [PATCH 1/5] cpufreq: loongson3: Make this drvier depend on MACH_LOONGSON64

Hello Huacai,
Just share a few inline comments/questions below:

Typo --> driver? Likewise the subject.

Nit, it is better to add fixes tag?  For example:

ccf51454145b ("cpufreq: Add Loongson-3 CPUFreq driver support")

Small nit:

Please feel free to correct me.

There are two MACH_LOONGSON64 symbols in the tree:
  arch/loongarch/Kconfig: config MACH_LOONGSON64
                                 def_bool 64BIT

  arch/mips/Kconfig:      config MACH_LOONGSON64
                                 bool "Loongson 64-bit family of
                                 machines"
                                 select ...

The one that actually applies here is the LoongArch one, i.e. this is
really just "depends on 64BIT".  Since drivers/cpufreq/Kconfig is a
shared file that also contains an "if MIPS" block, please at least
is it better to mention it in the changelog which MACH_LOONGSON64 is
using, because the LoongArch one has no prompt and is therefore
invisible in menuconfig. Or just write "depends on 64BIT"?
