That should be bool, seeing what it returns.

Apologies for commenting on this only now, I had missed it in my earlier
round of review.

I would've liked to keep this contained within arm64 stuff until we agreed
on a more generic counter-driven FIE interface, but seems like we can't evade
it due to the arch_topology situation.

Would it make sense to relocate this stub to arch_topology.h instead, at
least for the time being? That way the only non-arm64 changes are condensed
in arch_topology (even if it doesn't change much in terms of header files,
since topology.h imports arch_topology.h)

Or make it as a 'weak' and place it just above the arch_set_freq_scale()
in arch_topology.c, not touching headers?
