[Skiboot] [PATCH v3] power-mgmt : occ : Add 'freq-domain-indicator' DT property

Add a new device-tree property freq-domain-indicator to define group of
CPUs which would share same frequency. This property has been added under
power-mgmt node.

It is a bitmask which will have different value depending upon the
generation of the processor. Bitwise AND is taken between this bitmask
value and PIR of cpu. All the CPUs lying in the same frequency domain will
have same result for AND.

For example, for POWER8 0xFFF8 indicates core wide frequency domain.
Taking AND with the PIR of CPUs will yield us a frequency domain which is
core wide distribution as last 3 bits have been masked which represent the
threads.

For POWER9, 0xFFF0 indicates quad wide frequency domain. Taking AND with
the PIR of CPUs will yield us frequency domain which is quad wise
distribution as last 4 bits have been masked which represent the cores.

+This property is a bitmask which will have different value depending upon

+CPUs which would share same frequency. Bitwise AND is taken between this
+bitmask value and PIR of cpu. All the CPUs lying in the same frequency
+domain will have same result for AND. Thus frequency management can be
+done based on frequency-domain. A frequency domain may be a core or a
+quad, etc depending upon the generation of the processor.
