Viresh: Could you imagine something similar for cpufreq? You suggested
migrating to Hz resolution. I guess that would ideally mean to follow
the CCF to a 64-bit type for frequencies and increasing the resolution.
I have a messy patch migrating cpufreq and OPP to Hz and unsigned long
that works on Zynq. But cpufreq has so many users that it would become
quite an undertaking.
And we'd need some new/amended OPP DT binding.
If we are going to migrate to Hz from KHz, I think we must consider the
64 bit stuff right now, otherwise it will bite us later.

@Rafael: What do you think?
I agree as far as the 64-bit thing goes, but is switching to Hz really
necessary?
