This would create that cpufreq-dt device on all non-Rockchip platforms 
compiled into the same kernel image as well - we definitly don't want that.

Also, on both the rk3368 as well as the rk3399, you probably want the cluster-
handling of arm-bL-cpufreq-dt.
Contrary to its name it is _not_ limited to switching between clusters, but 
can also control frequencies of multiple cpu-clusters running at the same 
time.


Implementation-wise, I guess doing it similar to the scpi-implementation might 
make more sense. Please take a look at drivers/clk/clk-scpi.c that registers 
the virtual cpufreq device there.

So we could do something similar, move the cpufreq from mach-rockchip to the 
clock drivers and register the appropriate cpufreq-driver for each soc.
cpufreq-dt for socs with a single cluster, the bL-thing for socs with multiple 
clusters.
