Just curious to know how different is this from qcom kryo driver
that was added recently. IIRC even that gets the speedbin from nvmem.
Can they be merged ? I don't see need to have different driver for Krait
and Kryo CPUs when the code is not even remotely related to CPU type.

Sorry if I have missed anything from previous versions, I just happen
to open and looked at this series first time today.
