You shouldn't be putting how linux is going to use this information and entries
shouldn't be made just so cpufreq can bind to a driver.

Though I see that this is a real hardware register which you can use to interact
with the firmware ? And so it makes sense to have it, maybe in different form
though.

I will let Rob explain what would be the right way of doing this though.
