arm_big_little cpufreq driver was designed as a generic big little
driver that could be used by any platform and make use of bL switcher.
Over years alternate solutions have been designed and merged to deal
with bL/HMP systems like EAS.
Also since no other driver made use of generic arm_big_little cpufreq
driver except Vexpress SPC, we can merge them together as vexpress-spc
driver used only on Vexpress TC2(CA15_CA7) platform.

Make these const as they are only getting passed to the functions
bL_cpufreq_{register/unregister} having the arguments as const.

Currently when performing random CPU hot-plugs and suspend-to-ram(S2R)
on systems using arm_big_little cpufreq driver, we get warnings similar
to something like below:
cpu cpu1: _opp_add: duplicate OPPs detected. Existing: freq: 600000000,
volt: 800000, enabled: 1. New: freq: 600000000, volt: 800000, enabled: 1
This is mainly because the OPPs for the shared cpus are not set. We can
just use dev_pm_opp_of_cpumask_add_table in case the OPPs are obtained
from DT(arm_big_little_dt.c) or use dev_pm_opp_set_sharing_cpus if the
OPPs are obtained by other means like firmware(e.g. scpi-cpufreq.c)
Also now that the generic dev_pm_opp{,_of}_cpumask_remove_table can
handle removal of opp table and entries for all associated CPUs, we can
re-use dev_pm_opp{,_of}_cpumask_remove_table as free_opp_table in
cpufreq_arm_bL_ops.
This patch makes necessary changes to reuse the generic OPP functions for
{init,free}_opp_table and thereby eliminating the warnings.

The TC2(i.e. CA15_A7) Versatile Express has external Cortex M3 based
power controller which is responsible for CPU DVFS and SPC provides
the interface for the same.
This patch adds a tiny interface driver to check if OPPs are
initialised by SPC platform code and register the arm_big_little
cpufreq driver.
