I don't like that idea, but I wonder what other people think.
Hmm, the other thread around looking at the bindings is really slow.

One common thing around the platforms which want to use
cpufreq-cpu0 is they have different clocks for ALL CPUs.

I was wondering if instead of a clock-matching routine, we can provide
some temporary relief to them via some other means.

I meant we can allow cpufreq-cpu0/generic to either set policy->cpus
to ALL CPUs or just 1. So that existing and these new platforms can
atleast get going..

But don't know how should we do that. Not a binding ofcourse, a
Kconfig option could work but multiplatform stuff would break. What
else?

Maybe platform data as we are handling cpufreq-cpu0 with a platform
device?
