The omap-cpufreq driver is not used in the corresponding defconfigs.
The pseudo platform device to use it was removed by
commit cb6675d6a868 ("ARM: OMAP2+: Remove legacy PM init")
10 years ago.

Checking if there is any need to reactivate it:
For omap3, dra7 there is ti-cpufreq to create cpufreq-dt device
For omap2/4/5 there is cpufreq-dt-plat to create cpufreq-dt device.
For omap1 this driver cannot be selected at all.

So no users, no need to reactivate the driver somehow. So remove it.

The cpufreq core now handles this for basic attributes, including boost
frequencies, the driver can skip setting them.

<content type='text'>
After commit 0edb555a65d1 ("platform: Make platform_driver::remove()
return void") .remove() is (again) the right callback to implement for
platform drivers.

Convert all platform drivers below drivers/cpufreq to use .remove(),
with the eventual goal to drop struct platform_driver::remove_new(). As
.remove() and .remove_new() have the same prototypes, conversion is done
by just changing the structure member name in the driver initializer.

The omap driver doesn't actually need asm/smp_plat.h, so drop it.
asm/cpu.h is not needed either as linux/cpu.h is already included.

The cpufreq core doesn't check the return type of the exit() callback
and there is not much the core can do on failures at that point. Just
drop the returned value and make it return void.

The .remove() callback for a platform driver returns an int which makes
many driver authors wrongly assume it's possible to do error handling by
returning an error code. However the value returned is (mostly) ignored
and this typically results in resource leaks. To improve here there is a
quest to make the remove callback return void. In the first step of this
quest all drivers are converted to .remove_new() which already returns
void.

Trivially convert this driver from always returning zero in the remove
callback to the void returning variant.

All but a few drivers ignore the return value of
cpufreq_unregister_driver(). Those few that don't only call it after
cpufreq_register_driver() succeeded, in which case the call doesn't
fail.

Make the function return no value and add a WARN_ON for the case that
the function is called in an invalid situation (i.e. without a previous
successful call to cpufreq_register_driver()).

<title>cpufreq: Remove CPUFREQ_STICKY flag</title>

<id>urn:sha1:5ae4a4b45d4396aa7f7c008c4ae9eca981d43f8c</id>
<content type='text'>
During cpufreq driver's registration, if the -&gt;init() callback for all
the CPUs fail then there is not much point in keeping the driver around
as it will only account for more of unnecessary noise, for example
cpufreq core will try to suspend/resume the driver which never got
registered properly.

The removal of such a driver is avoided if the driver carries the
CPUFREQ_STICKY flag. This was added way back [1] in 2004 and perhaps no
one should ever need it now. A lot of drivers do set this flag, probably
because they just copied it from other drivers.

This was added earlier for some platforms [2] because their cpufreq
drivers were getting registered before the CPUs were registered with
subsys framework. And hence they used to fail.

The same isn't true anymore though. The current code flow in the kernel
is:

start_kernel()
-&gt; kernel_init()
   -&gt; kernel_init_freeable()
      -&gt; do_basic_setup()
         -&gt; driver_init()
            -&gt; cpu_dev_init()
               -&gt; subsys_system_register() //For CPUs

         -&gt; do_initcalls()
            -&gt; cpufreq_register_driver()

Clearly, the CPUs will always get registered with subsys framework
before any cpufreq driver can get probed. Remove the flag and update the
relevant drivers.

The Energy Model framework supports not only CPU devices. Drop the CPU
specific interface with cpumask and add struct device. Add also a return
value, user might use it. This new interface provides easy way to create
a simple Energy Model, which then might be used by e.g. thermal subsystem.
