I'm slightly confused here. IMHO this doesn't seem to be related to the
"HW dependency between 'little CPUs & L3 $ in DSU' or similar" usecase.

I assumed that this usecase is rather handled via an additional
out-of-tree driver, potentially the same which updates the EM because of
temperature change (em_dev_compute_costs(), em_dev_update_perf_domain())
or chip binning (em_dev_update_chip_binning()).

What about other CPUFreq drivers registering an EM via
em_dev_register_perf_domain() or 'cpufreq_register_em_with_opp() ->
dev_pm_opp_of_register_em()'? Or is this 'limit notification' an SCMI FW
only thing?
