Subject: clk: qoriq: Don't allow CPU clocks higher than starting value

From: Scott Wood <[email protected]>

commit 7c1c5413a7bdf1c9adc8d979521f1b8286366aef upstream.

The boot-time frequency of a CPU is considered its rated maximum, as we have no other source of such information. However, this was previously only used for chips with 80% restrictions on secondary PLLs. This usually wasn't a problem because most chips/configs boot with a divider of /1, with other dividers being used only for dynamic frequency reduction. However, at least one config (LS1021A at less than 1 GHz) uses a different divider for top speed. This was causing cpufreq to set a frequency beyond the chip's rated speed.

This is fixed by applying a 100%-of-initial-speed limit to all CPU PLLs, similar to the existing 80% limit that only applied to some.
