[RFC PATCH v3 0/2] Add Krait Cache Scaling support

This adds Krait Cache scaling support using the cpufreq notifier.
I have some doubt about where this should be actually placed (clk or cpufreq)?
Also the original idea was to create a dedicated cpufreq driver (like it's done in
the codeaurora qcom repo) by copying the cpufreq-dt driver and adding the cache
scaling logic but i still don't know what is better. Have a very similar driver or
add a dedicated driver only for the cache using the cpufreq notifier and do the
scale on every freq transition.
Thanks to everyone who will review or answer these questions.

v3:
* Use opp infrastructure
* Update documentation

v2:
* Fix Documentation error reported by bot
* Rework code to fail probe on missing required params
* Optimize notifier callback to reduce CPU cycle
