Are there still any users of CONFIG_BL_SWITCHER? I guess it's only
limited to A15/A7 systems w/ vexpress-spc-cpufreq.c ... so probably only
TC2?
I think so as no one shouted when I merged bL switcher driver into
vexpress-spc-cpufreq.c
I think a good indication is also the fact that frequency invariance was
broken for a long time for bL_switcher_enabled systems and nobody
shouted.

A way to make this nicer is to fully remove BL_SWITCHER support. This
support was valuable at its time, but given that now there is proper
asymmetric CPU capacity support, is there any reason to hold on to this?

Thanks,
Ionela.
