Viresh Kumar 2b80f3138e cpufreq: ARM big LITTLE: Improve print message
The message printed at the end of driver->init() doesn't include the
"cpufreq" string at all and so is difficult to find in dmesg. Add
function name to that message to clearly state where the message is
coming from.

Viresh Kumar 4521adf85c cpufreq: ARM big LITTLE: Move cpu_to_cluster() to arm_big_little.h
The cpu_to_cluster() function may be used by glue drivers, so it's
better to keep it in arm_big_little.h.

This driver isn't updated to work with latest cpufreq core updates that happened
recently. Fix them.

Viresh Kumar 8a67f0ef2b cpufreq: ARM big LITTLE: Add generic cpufreq driver and its DT glue
big LITTLE is ARM's new Architecture focussing power/performance needs of modern
world. More information about big LITTLE can be found here:

http://www.arm.com/products/processors/technologies/biglittleprocessing.php
http://lwn.net/Articles/481055/

In order to keep cpufreq support for all big LITTLE platforms simple/generic,
this patch tries to add a generic cpufreq driver layer for all big LITTLE
platforms.

The driver is divided into two parts:
- Core driver: Generic and shared across all big LITTLE SoC's
- Glue drivers: Per platform drivers providing ops to the core driver

This patch adds in a generic glue driver which would extract information from
Device Tree.

Future SoC's can either reuse the DT glue or write their own depending on the
need.
