This patch set adds very basic support for the interconnect framework

other drivers.

Here's the relevant entries from the interconnect_summary file in
debugfs that shows the two ICC paths are setup for the first UFS
host controller on the SA8540p automotive board (sc8280xp).

I wonder whether this is solving the same or orthogonal problem as my
old patchset here:

https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220513061347.46480-1-krzysztof.kozlowski@xxxxxxxxxx/

More or less it does. Vendor kernel scales both paths according to the gear selected. I was surprised to see just two entries there. sdm845 has 22 entries in its msm-bus scaling table. What was the reason for just two entries in your case?

What was the net result for that patchset? Is it going to be merged anytime?

I think we can start with just a version of this patchset that enables static ICC config and then upgrade that with proper OPP tables, WDYT?

(I wrote 'a version' since I had to modify the patch to set avg_bw instead of setting the peak_bw and to pass different values instead of UINT_MAX, I'll send it).
