Could you please change these bindings to be generic?

s/qcom_boot_stats/boot_stats/
s/pre_abl_time/pre_bootloader_msec/
s/abl_time/bootloader_msec/

This way other platforms might also use the same file structure.

Quoting v4 question, which got no answer:

Some of the platforms DTs define 32KHz clock instead of 32.768 KHz
What should be the divisor in this case?

Another point from v4:

It would be better to move the unit to the file name and include just
the number.
