Hi Sibi,

a bit late on this, sorry.

Just a couple of nitpicks down below.

or &data->sdev->dev which refers to this driver ? which is more informational ? no strong opinion just a question...

	^^^ ... you dont need to pass around handle AND sdev really
                since you can access the handle from sdev.

This is slightly better, but, as said, does not solve the multi-instance issue...
..the scmi cpufreq driver remains a driver that works only if instantiated (probed)
once, given how the CPUFreq core handles cpufreq_driver registration itself...

..just a note about something to work on in the future...NOT a concern for this series.

In general,

LGTM.
