[RFC 1/3] dt-bindings: Correct RISC-V's timebase-frequency

From: Atish Patra

From: Palmer Dabbelt <palmer@xxxxxxxxxx>

Someone must have read the device tree specification incorrectly,
because we were putting timebase-frequency in the wrong place. This
corrects the issue, moving it from

/ {
cpus {
timebase-frequency = X;
}
}

to

/ {
cpus {
cpu@0 {
timebase-frequency = X;
}
}
}

This is great, because the timer's frequency should really be a per-cpu
quantity on RISC-V systems since there's a timer per CPU. This should
lead to some cleanups in our timer driver.
