So, I replied again as following on my other reply[1] of patch2: 
[1] https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/11/22/507

But, you have to add following new code on patch3 instead of patch2.
patch2 doesn't contain the following codes and then
patch3 adds 'resume_freq' variable and adds the following code on patch3.

+
+       if (devfreq->suspend_freq)
+               devfreq->resume_freq = cur_freq;
