[PATCH RESEND] arm: topology: Fix missing clock-frequency property warning

Good question, the device tree specification in Section 3.7 [1] says:

 > The /cpus node may contain properties that are common across cpu
nodes. See Section 3.8 for details.

And in Section 3.8 [2]:

 > Properties that have identical values across cpu nodes may be placed

So I think it is pretty clear that it should only be used for 
common/identical values.

You are right, clock-frequency is not mentioned neither in arm/cpus.yaml 
nor in any other <arch>/cpus.yaml binding, but the DT spec has it as a 
required property [3]. Should I add clock-frequency to all 
<arch>/cpus.yaml bindings? Only the ARM one explicitly mentions 
following the DT spec.

Kind regards,

Stefan
