Register passive cooling devices when initialising cpufreq on
big.LITTLE systems. If the device tree provides a dynamic power
coefficient for the CPUs then the bound cooling device will support
the extensions that allow it to be used with all the existing thermal
governors including the power allocator governor.

A cooling device will be created per individual frequency domain and
can be bound to thermal zones via the thermal DT bindings.

I think we need to be consistent within the driver, and so this must
be stored in a similar way to what we do for other structures. We have
static arrays for them, please do it that way only OR first change all
of them to be part of a bigger private_data structure.

Sure, I'll switch to using static arrays. There seem to be a lot of
assumptions that might be easily broken in moving all the data into a
single structure. I'll leave that as a later change.
