Many CPU architectures have caches that can scale independent of the CPUs. Frequency scaling of the caches is necessary to make sure that the cache is not a performance bottleneck that leads to poor performance and power. The same idea applies for RAM/DDR. To achieve this, this patch adds support for cpu based scaling to the passive governor. This is accomplished by taking the current frequency of each CPU frequency domain and then adjust the frequency of the cache (or any devfreq device) based on the frequency of the CPUs. It listens to CPU frequency transition notifiers to keep itself up to date on the current CPU frequency. To decide the frequency of the device, the governor does one of the following: * Derives the optimal devfreq device opp from required-opps property of the parent cpu opp_table. * Scales the device frequency in proportion to the CPU frequency. So, if the CPUs are running at their max frequency, the device runs at its max frequency. If the CPUs are running at their min frequency, the device runs at its min frequency. It is interpolated for frequencies in between.
