[PATCH v7 2/2] dt-bindings: cpufreq: add bindings for MediaTek cpufreq HW

Hi, Viresh & Rob Sir:

I will change frequency domain to below and define it in cpufreq_hw
schema rather than cpu node.

mediatek,freq-domain-0 = <&cpu0>, <&cpu1>;

Is it OK to you?
Or you think OPP define is a better solution?

opp-table-0 {
    compatible = "mediatek,hw-operating-points", "operating-points-v2";
};

Thank you for the opinions.
