While I kind of understand why you want [3/3] to go into 3.10, I'm wondering about the other two patches. Why exactly are they needed now?
First one:
cpufreq: Add EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL for have_governor_per_policy
is required so that governors can be compiled as module. Otherwise they may break.. I haven't tried that but I believe that is the case.
For second one:
cpufreq: governors: Move get_governor_parent_kobj() to cpufreq.c
I was actually working on Android's Interactive governor (Where I enabled same per-policy-instance of governor support), And i required this patch for its working. Then I thought other platform specific governors present in mainline might also use this routine and so must be pushed to cpufreq.c.
Now, because this patch is around due to something which got added in 3.10-rc1, its better to fix it in rcs only rather than fixing it in 3.11. I will trust your judgement here, push it for 3.10-rc if it looks okay to you.
And speaking of patch [3/3], if you paste kernel logs into changelogs, please remove the time stamps (unless they are relevant to the problem being fixed).
Okay.. Will keep that in mind.
