Returning almost after a month to this :(

- I agree that consolidation to cpufreq-cpu0 driver is good but adding a
backend clk driver for that is bad. I would look around supporting callbacks
to cpufreq-cpu0 driver. So that ->target()/->target_index() can be specified
by platform drivers and rest of the code can be used. But that's the next
problem to solve.

- Back to the first issue. How do we sharing information from DT ?

As I read them (and I may be wrong in understanding that), there were
conflicting ideas from many..

Can we please decide how we want to see these bindings? So, that I can
implement them quickly and close this thread...

Its just hanging in the middle as there wasn't a single clean solution yet.
