Good news (I think)

With cooling-device = <&cpu 1 2> setup, I was able to ask the max
frequency and it returned 600MHz.

# cat /sys/devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone0/temp
58500
# cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/policy0/scaling_available_frequencies
300000 600000 800000
# cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/policy0/scaling_m
scaling_max_freq  scaling_min_freq
# cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/policy0/scaling_max_freq
600000
