While I'd really like for this to be merged, it's gonna totally wreck backwards

compatibility.. But then, since APCC was not defined properly before commit

0a275a35ceab07 arm64: dts: qcom: msm8996: Make CPUCC actually probe (and work)

there's only 5.14/5.15 (both of which were non-LTS) which would *actually* break given

somebody decided that "ah yes, pulling in DTs from these specific mainline kernel releases

is a good idea"...


If I were to judge, it would probably be fine to rid the old mechanism..
