Subject: [PATCH 3.16 018/158] powerpc/cpufreq: Add pr_warn() on OPAL firmware failures

3.16-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Vaidyanathan Srinivasan <svaidy@...ux.vnet.ibm.com>

commit 6174bac8c7ff73a86ae9a967d1c9cadc478023ae upstream.

Cpufreq depends on platform firmware to implement PStates.  In case of
platform firmware failure, cpufreq should not panic host kernel with
BUG_ON().  Less severe pr_warn() will suffice.

Add firmware_has_feature(FW_FEATURE_OPALv3) check to
skip probing for device-tree on non-powernv platforms.
