Subject: [PATCH V2 0/9] cpufreq: Auto-register with energy model

Many cpufreq drivers register with the energy model for each policy and
do exactly the same thing. Follow the footsteps of thermal-cooling, to
get it done from the cpufreq core itself.

Provide a new callback, which will be called, if present, by the cpufreq
core at the right moment (more on that in the code's comment). Also
provide a generic implementation that uses dev_pm_opp_of_register_em().

This also allows us to register with the EM at a later point of time,
compared to ->init(), from where the EM core can access cpufreq policy
directly using cpufreq_cpu_get() type of helpers and perform other work,
like marking few frequencies inefficient, this will be done separately.

This is build/boot tested by the bot for a couple of boards.

https://gitlab.com/vireshk/pmko/-/pipelines/351525873

Note that I haven't picked any of the Reviewed-by tags from the first version
since the idea is very much changed here.

V1->V2:
- Add a callback instead of flag.
- Register before governor is initialized.
- Update scmi driver as well.
- Don't unregister from the EM core.
