Subject: [PATCH v4 0/7] cpufreq support for Raspberry Pi

Hi all,
this aims at adding cpufreq support to the Raspberry Pi family of
boards.

The series first factors out 'pllb' from clk-bcm2385 and creates a new
clk driver that operates it over RPi's firmware interface[1]. We are
forced to do so as the firmware 'owns' the pll and we're not allowed to
change through the register interface directly as we might race with the
over-temperature and under-voltage protections provided by the firmware.

Next it creates a minimal cpufreq driver that populates the CPU's opp
table, and registers cpufreq-dt. Which is needed as the firmware
controls the max and min frequencies available.

This was tested on a RPi3b+ and RPI2b, both using multi_v7_defconfig and
arm64's defconfig.

That's all,
kind regards,
Nicolas

Changes since v3:
  - Fix sparse warnings in clk-raspberrypi.c
  - Minor cleanups

Changes since v2:
  - Fixed configs to match Stefan's comments
  - Round OPP frequencies
  - Rebase onto linux-next
  - Minor cleanups & checkpatch.pl

Changes since v1:
  - Enabled by default on the whole family of devices
  - Added/Fixed module support
  - clk device now registered by firmware driver
  - raspberrypi-cpufreq device now registered by clk driver
  - Reimplemented clk rounding unsing determine_rate()
  - Enabled in configs for arm and arm64

Changes since RFC:
  - Move firmware clk device into own driver

Nicolas Saenz Julienne (7):
  clk: bcm2835: remove pllb
  clk: bcm283x: add driver interfacing with Raspberry Pi's firmware
  firmware: raspberrypi: register clk device
  cpufreq: add driver for Raspberry Pi
  clk: raspberrypi: register platform device for raspberrypi-cpufreq
  ARM: defconfig: enable cpufreq driver for RPi
  arm64: defconfig: enable cpufreq support for RPi3
