I think the clocks property should be moved to the individual CPU nodes.
Ah, I had a look around, and I found some instances that are in the cpu
sub-node, and others that are not -- it seems that having it in the cpu
sub-node would implies it's core specific... here if that clock is changed
both cores would change speed...
Assumed the driver code knows to look in the parent node, which I doubt
the cpufreq code does.
Either way, it's not used by the kernel in any way at the moment -- I had
hoped cpufreq or something would claim it, but it's not the case.
I guess you have to add your main SoC compatible value to the whitelist
in drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq-dt-platdev.c first.
