Hi Lin,
I add the some comment on below.
If you modify them, feel free to add the my reviewed tag on next version:

This entry needs the following command in Kconfig:
select DEVFREQ_EVENT_ROCKCHIP_DFI

Use a capital letter for and abbreviation.

The entry would be positioned
The position of CONFIG_ARM_RK3399_DMC_DEVFREQ would be good on
between EXYNOS_BUS_DEVFREQ and TEGRA_DEVFREQ because of the alphabetical order.

As I mentioned on previous patches on v4,
You'd better to use the devm_devfreq_register_opp_notifier().
If you use devm_devfreq_register_opp_notifier(), you don't need
to handle the unregistration operation.
