Right, I was confused before and not sure how to do that, so I copy the whole
cpu at 0's dts as example, will add info to let user know this is a sub property
of cpu at 0, and refer to cpufreq-cpu0.txt.

Yes, with above change, I can remove these properties.

I will not list so many properties as example as long as I describe this
preoperties should be included in cpu at 0's node?
