The big.LITTLE cpufreq driver is useful on arm64 big.LITTLE systems even without IKS support since it implements support for clusters with shared clocks (a common big.LITTLE configuration). In order to allow it to be built provide the non-IKS stubs for arm64, enabling cpufreq with all the cores available.
Have you thought of patching the actual cpufreq driver? Are you adding this code just to avoid compiler errors on arm64 with this driver?
It may make sense to make an asm-generic version of these stubs instead
asm-generic/bL_switcher.h? I take it as a good joke ;)
but given that there's only likely to be these two architectures using the code and asm-generic stubs also need per architecture updates it's probably more trouble than it's worth.
Exactly.
