Sorry for misoperation.
No Problem...
One concern. Target() callback may return before changing
cpufreq actually due to some check failures. After this change, prechange event will be triggered when these check failures take place. I am not sure whether this should be took into account.
Yes, if you see the first patch of this series, it takes this into account.. In case target() failed and returned an error, we simply notify the POST CHANGE notification with old frequencies instead of new ones. I believe that would be enough..
Yes, I have seen it but I missed the following two patches because they are not in the linux-pm tree. You moved the cpufreq_frequency_table_target() to cpufreq core and before notifying PRE CHANGE notification. The major check has been done. Now I think it's ok. Thanks for explanation.

This is exactly what acpi-cpufreq and others are doing currently.
Hope I answered your question well?
