[PATCH v2] arm: topology: Consider clock-frequency property from parent /cpus node

From: Stefan Wiehler
Date: Wed Dec 21 2022 - 10:42:54 EST


If the clock-frequency property is not set in the cpu node but in the
parent /cpus node, the following warning is emitted:

/cpus/cpu@X missing clock-frequency property

The devicetree specification in section 3.8 however specifies that
"properties that have identical values across cpu nodes may be placed in
the /cpus node instead. A client program must first examine a specific cpu
node, but if an expected property is not found then it should look at the
parent /cpus node."

---
- Refactored /cpus node lookup
- Add missing node refcount decrement via of_node_put(); of_get_property() does
not need it
