+Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. CPUFREQ Bindings
+
+CPUFREQ FW is a hardware engine used by some Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. (QTI)
+SoCs to manage frequency in hardware. It is capable of controlling frequency
+for multiple clusters.
+
+Properties:
+- compatible
+	Usage:		required
+	Value type:	<string>
+	Definition:	must be "qcom,cpufreq-fw".
+

If the firmware is referred with some other name, better to use that
than cpufreq
+Note that #address-cells, #size-cells, and ranges shall be present to ensure
+the cpufreq can address a freq-domain registers.
+
+A freq-domain sub-node would be defined for the cpus with the following
+properties:
+
+- compatible:
+	Usage:		required
+	Value type:	<string>
+	Definition:	must be "cpufreq".
+
+- reg
+	Usage:		required
+	Value type:	<prop-encoded-array>
+	Definition:	Addresses and sizes for the memory of the perf_base
+			, lut_base and en_base.

Can you explicitly define each one of them ? Either here or in reg-names.


Sure will define each of them in the next series.

+- reg-names
+	Usage:		required
+	Value type:	<stringlist>
+	Definition:	Address names. Must be "perf_base", "lut_base",
+			"en_base".
+			Must be specified in the same order as the
+			corresponding addresses are specified in the reg
+			property.
+
+- qcom,cpulist
+	Usage:		required
+	Value type:	<phandles of CPU>
+	Definition:	List of related cpu handles which are under a cluster.
+

As already mentioned by Rob and Viresh, better to align with OPP style
to avoid phandle list of CPUs.


I have put down an example device tree node for Rob & Viresh to review.

Also I see similar bindings for devfreq, can't they be aligned ?
E.g. lut_base here while it's ftbl_base in devfreq.


It is actually the look up table, thus was the name given as "lut". Will check with Saravana for devfreq and align accordingly.
