Sorry, this is just not proper DT design. The whole node should have a
reg property, and it should contain two (or three if we're handling the
L3 clk domain?) different offsets for the different power clusters. The
problem seems to still be that we don't have a way to map the CPUs to
the clk domains they're in provided by this hardware block. Making
subnodes is not the solution.
The problem is mapping clock domains to logical CPUs that CPUfreq uses. The
physical CPU to logical CPU mapping can be changed by the kernel (even
through DT if I'm not mistaken). So we need to have a way to tell in DT
which physical CPUs are connected to which CPU freq clock domain.
How about passing CPU freq clock domain id as along with phandle in
qcom,freq-domain ?
