No, the CPUs will be the "parent" and the cache will be the "child".
CPU is a special case when it comes to the actual software (not DT) as
we'll need the devfreq governor to look at all the CPUfreq policies to
decide the cache frequency (max of all their requirements).

I think "master" and "slave" would have been a better term as the
master device determines its frequency using whatever means and the
"slave" device just "follows" the master device.
