In this patch, the cpu_cooling code checks for the usability of cpufreq
layer before proceeding with the CPU cooling device registration. The
main reason is: CPU cooling device is not usable if cpufreq cannot
switch frequencies.

Similar checks are spread in thermal drivers. Thus, the advantage now
is to have the check in a single place: cpu cooling device registration.
For this reason, this patch also updates the existing drivers that
depend on CPU cooling to simply propagate the error code of the cpu
cooling registration call. Therefore, in case cpufreq is not ready, the
thermal drivers will still return -EPROBE_DEFER, in an attempt to try
again when cpufreq layer gets ready.

Changes from V2:
- Removed logging message when returning EPROBE_DEFER. Majority
of the existing code simply do not log. Following the pattern
- Merges Viresh's patch in Exynos driver. Reasoning, the change
in the API behavior goes together with the needed changes in the API
users.

Changes from V1:
 - As per Viresh K. suggestion's, the check for cpufreq layer readiness is now
    only a simple fetch for cpufreq table.

This patch depends on:
(0) - Viresh's change in cpufreq layer and cpufreq-dt (up to patch 4):
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/5390731/
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/5390741/
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/5390751/

(1) - fix of thermal core:

I like the md5sum better! :-)

Sure. I will resend with the error codes in the error messages. Makes
completely sense.

Thanks for taking the time and reviewing.

Something which bugs me quite a lot is when there is an error code (which
tells you why something didn't work) and you have an error message, and
the error message doesn't bother printing the error code.

You might as well just print "Failed\n" and leave it at that, or md5sum
the error message and print the sum instead. :)

Knowing why something failed allows you to read the source, and find
possible reasons for the failure (which could come down to one reason)
and allows faster resolution of the problem.

Please add a pr_debug() here, that will be quite useful while debugging.

Also, you can't simply pass 0 to get_table() above. We might be
registering the cooling device for some other cluster as well..

This is what I have done in my patch earlier.

cpufreq_frequency_get_table(cpumask_first(clip_cpus));

And this will work for all cases.
