I don't love this...  It seems like an hack.  Could we put a flag
somewhere instead?  Perhaps in scmi_device?  (I'm just saying that
because that's what we're passing to this function).

This means when creating scmi_device, a flag needs to be set which requires
to extend scmi_device_id to include a flag entry or else.

As below in scmi-cpufreq.c
{ SCMI_PROTOCOL_PERF, "cpufreq", SCMI_FWNODE_NO }

I am not sure Sudeep or Cristian are happy with the idea or not.

But back to the patch here, we are in the path creating the scmi_device and
cpufreq scmi device seems the only one that cause issue. So it should be
fine using this patch?

Thanks,
Peng

Yeah, I like that.

-	if ((protocol == SCMI_PROTOCOL_PERF) && !strcmp(name, "cpufreq")) {
+	if (scmi_dev->flags & SCMI_FWNODE_NO) {

Or we could do something like "if (scmi_dev->no_fwnode) {"

I proposed a flag a few review ago about this, it shoule come somehow
from the device_table above like Peng was proposing, so that a driver
can just declare that does NOT need fw_devlink.

Sorry, looks I replied to v1 series. Can you take a look at that
response please?
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/CAGETcx87Stfkru9gJrc1sf=PtFGLY7=jrfFaCzK5Z4hq+2TCzg@mail.gmail.com/

If that suggestion I gave there would work, then that's the cleanest
approach. This patch series is just kicking the can down the road (or
down an inch).

Great.  I think we're on the same page then.
