[PATCH v1 & v6 1/2] PM/devfreq: add suspend frequency support

[hl]

Hi Chanwoo Choi,

     I think the dev_pm_opp_get_suspend_opp() have implement most of
the funtion, all we need is just define the node in dts, like following:

&dmc_opp_table {
     opp06 {
         opp-suspend;
     };
};

so i think my way semm more simple.
