For reference.

The existing DTS with fsl,qe have the following bus-frequency property values:

arch/arm64/boot/dts/freescale/fsl-ls1043a.dtsi:  bus-frequency = <200000000>
arch/powerpc/boot/dts/fsl/mpc8568si-post.dtsi:   bus-frequency = <396000000>
arch/powerpc/boot/dts/fsl/mpc8569si-post.dtsi:   bus-frequency = <0>
arch/powerpc/boot/dts/fsl/p1021si-post.dtsi:     missing!
arch/powerpc/boot/dts/fsl/t1024si-post.dtsi:     bus-frequency = <0>
arch/powerpc/boot/dts/fsl/t1040si-post.dtsi:     missing!
arch/powerpc/boot/dts/kmeter1.dts:               bus-frequency = <0>
arch/powerpc/boot/dts/mpc836x_rdk.dts:           bus-frequency = <0>
arch/powerpc/boot/dts/mpc832x_rdb.dts:           bus-frequency = <198000000>

The 3 non-zero values are most likely also not guaranteed by SoC design
to always be the right values. But I haven't checked.

Figuring out the correct array values for fsl,qe-snums for ls1021a is
not so easy. It is not so clear from the reference manual, what it
should be. And the default array used for fsl,qe-num-snums = <28> does
not look right in any way, but seems to work.

It would not feel right to just copy those values and put into DTS, as
it would imply that the values are truly a correct description for the
LS1021A hardware.

Done.
