[PATCH v3 0/2] cpufreq: spacemit: Add cpufreq support for K1 SoC

This series enables CPU frequency scaling for the SpacemiT K1 SoC.

K1 has two CPU cluster clocks but one shared CPU voltage rail. Add a
small K1-specific cpufreq driver so the two clocks and the shared OPP
transition can be handled together.

Tested on Banana Pi BPI-F3. The system boots with all eight CPUs online,
the K1 cpufreq driver registers one policy for CPUs 0-7, and both CPU
cluster clocks follow the selected cpufreq rate.

~ # cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/online

~ # ls /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq

~ # cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/policy0/affected_cpus
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
