Many common initializations of struct policy are moved to core now and hence
this driver doesn't need to do it. This patch removes such code.

Most recent of those changes is to call ->get() in the core after calling
->init().

Most of the CPUFreq drivers do similar things in .exit() and .verify() routines
and .attr. So its better if we have generic routines for them which can be used
by cpufreq drivers then.

This patch uses these generic routines in the arm_big_little driver.

Use cpufreq_driver->flags to mark CPUFREQ_HAVE_GOVERNOR_PER_POLICY instead
of a separate field within cpufreq_driver. This will save some bytes of
memory.

Drivers which have an exit path must call cpufreq_frequency_table_put_attr() if
they have called cpufreq_frequency_table_get_attr() in their init path.

This driver was missing this part and is fixed with this patch.

Lets use cpufreq_table_validate_and_show() instead of calling
cpufreq_frequency_table_cpuinfo() and cpufreq_frequency_table_get_attr().

PRECHANGE and POSTCHANGE notifiers must be called in groups, i.e either both
should be called or both shouldn't be.

In case we have started PRECHANGE notifier and found an error, we must call
POSTCHANGE notifier with freqs.new = freqs.old to guarantee that sequence of
calling notifiers is complete.

This patch fixes it.

This also removes code setting policy->cur as this is also done by POSTCHANGE
notifier.

The message printed at the end of driver->init() doesn't include the
"cpufreq" string at all and so is difficult to find in dmesg. Add
function name to that message to clearly state where the message is
coming from.

The cpu_to_cluster() function may be used by glue drivers, so it's
better to keep it in arm_big_little.h.

big LITTLE is ARM's new Architecture focussing power/performance needs of modern
world. More information about big LITTLE can be found here:

http://www.arm.com/products/processors/technologies/biglittleprocessing.php
http://lwn.net/Articles/481055/

In order to keep cpufreq support for all big LITTLE platforms simple/generic,
this patch tries to add a generic cpufreq driver layer for all big LITTLE
platforms.

The driver is divided into two parts:
- Core driver: Generic and shared across all big LITTLE SoC's
- Glue drivers: Per platform drivers providing ops to the core driver

This patch adds in a generic glue driver which would extract information from
Device Tree.

Future SoC's can either reuse the DT glue or write their own depending on the
need.
