RFC: https://lkml.org/lkml/2021/6/4/791
PATCH v1: https://lkml.org/lkml/2021/6/16/805
PATCH v2: https://lkml.org/lkml/2021/7/6/138

Changelog v2 --> v3
Based on a comment from Guatham:
1. Added a versioning check after the H_CALL is made to bail out when
   the version from the firmware is inconsistent with that in the kernel

Also, have implemented a POC using this interface for the powerpc-utils'
ppc64_cpu --frequency command-line tool to utilize this information
in userspace.
The POC for the new interface has been hosted here:
https://github.com/pratiksampat/powerpc-utils/tree/H_GET_ENERGY_SCALE_INFO_v2

Sample output from the powerpc-utils tool is as follows:

# ppc64_cpu --frequency
Power and Performance Mode: XXXX
Idle Power Saver Status   : XXXX
Processor Folding Status  : XXXX --> Printed if Idle power save status is supported

Platform reported frequencies --> Frequencies reported from the platform's H_CALL i.e PAPR interface
min        :    NNNN GHz
max        :    NNNN GHz
static     :    NNNN GHz

Tool Computed frequencies
min        :    NNNN GHz (cpu XX)
max        :    NNNN GHz (cpu XX)
avg        :    NNNN GHz
