clk_set_rate() isn't supposed to accept approximate frequencies, instead
a supported frequency should be obtained from clk_round_rate() and then
used to set the clock.

We are freeing parent node in success cases but not in failure cases.
Let's do it.

<title>cpufreq: cpufreq-cpu0: defer probe when regulator is not ready</title>

With commit 1e4b545, regulator_get will now return -EPROBE_DEFER
when the cpu0-supply node is present, but the regulator is not yet
registered.

It is possible for this to occur when the regulator registration
by itself might be defered due to some dependent interface not yet
instantiated. For example: an regulator which uses I2C and GPIO might
need both systems available before proceeding, in this case, the
regulator might defer it's registration.

However, the cpufreq-cpu0 driver assumes that any un-successful
return result is equivalent of failure.

When the regulator_get returns failure other than -EPROBE_DEFER, it
makes sense to assume that supply node is not present and proceed
with the assumption that only clock control is necessary in the
platform.

With this change, we can now handle the following conditions:
 a) cpu0-supply binding is not present, regulator_get will return
    appropriate error result, resulting in cpufreq-cpu0 driver
    controlling just the clock.
 b) cpu0-supply binding is present, regulator_get returns
    -EPROBE_DEFER, we retry resulting in cpufreq-cpu0 driver
    registering later once the regulator is available.
 c) cpu0-supply binding is present, regulator_get returns
    -EPROBE_DEFER, however, regulator never registers, we retry until
    cpufreq-cpu0 driver fails to register pointing at device tree
    information bug. However, in this case, the fact that
    cpufreq-cpu0 operates with clock only when the DT binding clearly
    indicates need of a supply is a bug of it's own.
 d) cpu0-supply gets an regulator at probe - cpufreq-cpu0 driver
    controls both the clock and regulator

policy-&gt;cpus contains all online cpus that have single shared clock line. And
their frequencies are always updated together.

Many SMP system's cpufreq drivers take care of this in individual drivers but
the best place for this code is in cpufreq core.

This patch modifies cpufreq_notify_transition() to notify frequency change for
all cpus in policy-&gt;cpus and hence updates all users of this API.

Currently we are simply returning from target() if we encounter some error after
broadcasting CPUFREQ_PRECHANGE notifier. Which looks to be wrong as others might
depend on POSTCHANGE notifier for their functioning.

So, better broadcast CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notifier for these failure cases too,
but with old frequency.

It is not possible for init() to be called for any cpu other than cpu0. During
bootup whatever cpu is used to boot system will be assigned as cpu0. And later
on policy-&gt;cpu can only change if we hotunplug all cpus first and then hotplug
them back in different order, which isn't possible (system requires atleast one
cpu to be up always :)).

Though I can see one situation where policy-&gt;cpu can be different then zero.
- Hot-unplug cpu 0.
- rmmod cpufreq-cpu0 module
- insmod it back
- hotplug cpu 0 again.

Here, policy-&gt;cpu would be different. But the driver doesn't have any dependency
on cpu0 as such. We don't mind which cpu of a system is policy-&gt;cpu and so this
check is just not required.

Remove it.
