[PATCH V4 0/6] ARM: OMAP3+: support cpufreq-cpu0 for device tree boot

The following version 4 of the series arose from trying to use BeagleBoard-XM
(OMAP3 variant) for doing CPU DVFS using cpufreq-cpu0. This series enables the
generic cpufreq-cpu0 driver to be used in device tree enabled boot while
maintaining support of the legacy omap-cpufreq driver when used in non device
tree enabled boot.

However, in order to enable complete SoC entitlement for OMAP platforms, with
this series, key features are still pending on device tree adaptation for OMAP:
A) clock framework data transition to DT - this should happen soon, so this
series hacks the clock node for the time being as suggested in review of
original series[1].
B) On processors that use voltage controller, voltage processor (VC/VP hardware
loop using I2C_SR path) - we have started work on transitioning them to
regulator framework driven by DT.
C) Adaptive Body Bias and SmartReflex AVS conversion to DT. [2]

Note: At this point in time, we do not have DT entries for clock on OMAP
platforms. Common Clock Framework(CCF) could also control regulators[3].
Once these conversions are complete, there might be minimal cleanup work to
switch to the new data structure changes.

Key benefit of the series is to allow all relevant TI platforms now to use a
single cpufreq driver and equivalent frameworks in addition be part of the
transition to device tree.
NOTE: As a result of this series:
1. omap-cpufreq will be used only in non device tree boot scenario. we should
   delete this driver once the 100% DT conversion is complete.
2. Generic cpufreq-cpu0 will be used only in device tree boot scenario.
   boot systems.

Key changes in version 4 since version 3:
	- OMAP clock driver introduced as discussed in
		http://marc.info/?t=136370325600009&r=1&w=2
	- cpufreq-cpu0 dummy device introduced in pm.c late_initcall: discussed
	  in http://marc.info/?t=136450773400004&r=1&w=2
	- updated test script (prints regulator voltage where available)
	- parts of the series probably belong to different maintainer:
	  consolidated as a single series to aid review in-context.
