Subject: [PATCH v6] counter: Introduce the COUNTER_COMP_FREQUENCY() macro

Now that there are two users for the "frequency" extension, introduce a
new COUNTER_COMP_FREQUENCY() macro.
This extension is intended to be a read-only signal attribute.

Suggested-by: William Breathitt Gray <william.gray@...aro.org>
Signed-off-by: Fabrice Gasnier <fabrice.gasnier@...s.st.com>
---
Changes in v6
- use COUNTER_COMP_SIGNAL_U64() helper macro.

Changes in v5
- "frequency" extension is read-only, so there's no need to provide
  a write parameter.
- patch sent separately from "counter: Add stm32 timer events support" [1]
