Add "clock-frequency" property to avoid below warning on i.MX7ULP:

I cannot find the binding doc for this property. What is the
definition of it, the maximum frequency that the cpu could possibly run
at?

The code is as below, maybe the property is missing from the beginning of this code,
this property should mean the current frequency of CPU running at I think:

arch/arm/kernel/topology.c

122 rate = of_get_property(cn, "clock-frequency", &len);
123 if (!rate || len != 4) {
124 pr_err("%pOF missing clock-frequency property\n", cn);
125 continue;
126 }

Thanks,
Anson

Yes, I can find the code, but not bindings for it. Considering
frequency of a CPU can be scaled in a quite wide range, we need
a clear understanding on this property. IIUIC, the property is used to
calculate the capacity of CPU, it should be the maximum frequency the
CPU could possibly scale to?
