+Generic ARM big LITTLE cpufreq driver's DT glue
+-----------------------------------------------
+
+This is DT specific glue layer for generic cpufreq driver for big LITTLE
+systems.
+
+Both required and optional properties listed below must be defined
+under node /cpus/cpu@x. Where x is the first cpu inside a cluster.
+
+FIXME: Cpus should boot in the order specified in DT and all cpus for a cluster
+must be present contiguously. Generic DT driver will check only node 'x' for
+cpu:x.
+
+Required properties:
+- operating-points: Refer to Documentation/devicetree/bindings/power/opp.txt
+ for details
+
+Optional properties:
+- clock-latency: Specify the possible maximum transition latency for clock,
+ in unit of nanoseconds.
+
+Examples:
+
+cpus {
+ #address-cells = <1>;
+ #size-cells = <0>;
+
+ cpu@0 {
+ compatible = "arm,cortex-a15";
+ reg = <0>;
+ next-level-cache = <&L2>;
+ operating-points = <
+ /* kHz uV */
+ 792000 1100000
+ 396000 950000
+ 198000 850000
+ >;
+ clock-latency = <61036>; /* two CLK32 periods */
+ };
+
+ cpu@1 {
+ compatible = "arm,cortex-a15";
+ reg = <1>;
+ next-level-cache = <&L2>;
+ };
+
+ cpu@100 {
+ compatible = "arm,cortex-a7";
+ reg = <100>;
+ next-level-cache = <&L2>;
+ operating-points = <
+ /* kHz uV */
+ 792000 950000
+ 396000 750000
+ 198000 450000
+ >;
+ clock-latency = <61036>; /* two CLK32 periods */
+ };
+
+ cpu@101 {
+ compatible = "arm,cortex-a7";
+ reg = <101>;
+ next-level-cache = <&L2>;
+ };
+};
