I see that the first patch takes care of reporting *per-chip* throttling
for pmax capping condition. But where are we taking care of reporting
"pstate set to safe" and "freq control disabled" scenarios per-chip ?

Why the else section ? The code can never reach here, can it ?

Should we not do this only when we get unthrottled so as to cross verify
if it is indeed the case ? In case of throttling notification, opal's
verdict is final and there is no need to cross verify right ?

Perhaps the one thing that needs to be taken care in addition to
reporting throttling is setting the chip's throttled parameter to true.
This should do right ? I don't see the need to call throttle_check() here.
