I don't understand what that compatible property is intended to mean and
I expect other readers might be similarly confused - is it a standard
compatbile property meaning this noe corresponds to some sort of device?
The goal is to choose the driver which we want to probe for a platform. There
can be multiple DT enabled cpufreq drivers present in a build and the platform
needs some way to choose one of them.
So you need to document this as a platform device then if that's what
you're doing here; there's more than just specifying a compatible string
involved.
