[PATCH 0/4] Allow cpufreq-dt to defer probe if OPP table is not ready

From: Dmitry Torokhov

[ Resending as my previous attempt appears to be messed up... ]

This series change cpufreq-dt driver to return -EPROBE_DEFER in case OPP table
is not ready by the time it gets to initialize. The use case is for platforms
that use platform code (or maybe a different driver altogether) to provide OPP
tables.

In addition to changes to cpufreq-dt there are assorted changes to OPP code to
make it work a bit better.

Note that I am not happy with OPP code: dev_pm_opp_init_cpufreq_table() is
wrong in it's assumption that taking RCU lock will guarantee that number of
OPPs will not change - we can remove OPP from list just fine, and then
initialization will fail. I also think that we shoudl change API so users should
get a reference to their OPP table and then pass opaque dev_opp pointer to
accessor APIs instead of re-scanning the global list over and over and over.

Thanks,
Dmitry
