powerpc: powernv: Framework to show the correct clock in /proc/cpuinfo
Currently, the code in setup-common.c for powerpc assumes that all clock rates are same in a smp system. This value is cached in the variable named ppc_proc_freq and is the value that is reported in /proc/cpuinfo. However on the PowerNV platform, the clock rate is same only across the threads of the same core. Hence the value that is reported in /proc/cpuinfo is incorrect on PowerNV platforms. We need a better way to query and report the correct value of the processor clock in /proc/cpuinfo. The patch achieves this by creating a machdep_call named get_proc_freq() which is expected to returns the frequency in Hz. The code in show_cpuinfo() can invoke this method to display the correct clock rate on platforms that have implemented this method. On the other powerpc platforms it can use the value cached in ppc_proc_freq. Signed-off-by: Gautham R. Shenoy <ego@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
