Hi Mark

We have been here before, with the kirkwood cpufreq driver. My v1 of
that driver had the cpufreq driver fully described in DT. My binding
got shot down and i was told that pseudo devices, like cpufreq,
cpuidle, should not be in DT, and a platform driver was the way to go.
So that is how kirkwood cpufreq works and dove follows that.

Do you want to reverse that decision now?

Thanks
	Andrew
