nit: AFAIK typically alphabetical order is used for includes, though
this file doesn't exactly adhere to it.

Is the nr_opp parameter really needed? The function looks up the CPU
device and hence could determine the OPP count itself with
dev_pm_opp_get_opp_count(). I see most cpufreq drivers call
dev_pm_opp_get_opp_count() anyway, so passing the count as parameter
can be considered a small optimization, not sure how relevant it is
though, since dev_pm_opp_of_register_em() isn't called frequently.
