Could we please come up with a way to probe this from DT in the
cpufreq-cpu0 driver itself, so we don't have to add a device in every
platform using it?

Its followed that way because DT Maintainers had strong objections
to creating virtual device nodes and haven't allowed creation of nodes
for cpufreq drivers.. For which there is no physical device, as CPU already
has a separate node..

as we already have the "enable-method" property for enabling/disabling cpus,
would something like a "scaling-method" be feasible?

Good idea to put it as a property into the CPU node.

Lets see what DT maintainers have to say on this, I would rather go for a
more straight forward name: "scaling-driver"  ..

Both sound fine to me.
