It looks that the warning is caused by that twd_update_frequency() gets
called from an atomic context while it calls clk_get_rate() where a
mutex gets held.

To fix the warning, let's convert common clk users over to clk notifiers
in place of CPUfreq notifiers.  This works out nicely for Cortex-A9
MPcore designs that scale all CPUs at the same frequency.

Platforms that have not been converted to the common clk framework and
support CPUfreq will rely on the old mechanism.  Once these platforms
are converted over fully then we can remove the CPUfreq-specific bits
for good.
