In contexts like suspend, shutdown, and error handling we need to suspend devfreq to make sure these contexts won't be disturbed by clock scaling. However, suspending devfreq is not enough since users can still trigger a clock scaling by manipulating the devfreq sysfs nodes like min/max_freq and governor even after devfreq is suspended. Moreover, mere suspending devfreq cannot synchroinze a clock scaling which has already been invoked through these sysfs nodes. Add one more flag in struct clk_scaling and wrap the entire func ufshcd_devfreq_scale() with the clk_scaling_lock, so that we can use this flag and clk_scaling_lock to control and synchronize clock scaling invoked through devfreq sysfs nodes.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
