How are you calling suspend/resume routins in the mali drivers?

It appears that your mali device driver's suspend/resume routines are
accessing "struct devfreq_dev_status" directly. Is this correct?


Plus, for MALI (if that assumption is correct), this issue might occur
with other governors.

If so, would it be better to put the first initializing call of
devfreq_update_stats() at devfreq_add_device()?


Cheers,
MyungJoo

ps. Where can I look at the mali-devfreq device driver? (I couldn't find it)
