Ok, i will open code the loop in next version. For latency value, i feel 
named macro makes readability better. So, prefer keeping it.

T194 supports four CPU clusters, each with two cores. Each CPU cluster 
is capable of running at a specific frequency sourced by respective 
NAFLL to provide cluster specific clocks. Individual cores within a 
cluster write freq in per core register. Cluster h/w forwards the 
max(core0, core1) request to per cluster NAFLL.

Ya, will remove flush_workqueue().

Yes, frequency tables are returned per cluster by BPMP firmware. In T194 
SOC, currently same table values are used for all clusters. This might 
change in future.
