I think that one devfreq-event device can support multiple devfreq-event types.
but, devfreq-event device might provide only value at one point.

But,
This patch is ambiguous and includes a bug according to your comment
(below switch statement). I'll drop this patch on next patch-set.

This patch will be posted on further patch-set after resolving some issue.

Best Regards,
