Thank you for your inspiration. I think i can handle ddrc clk like
the armclk.
About the dfi, it will monitor ddr utilization, according this
result to do
ddr frequency scaling. I think i can implement a dfi drvier, and
register it to devfreq,
then call the dmc_set_rate fucntion in the dfi drvier, meanwhile i
will implement a ddrc clk driver
like the armclk, implement set rate funciton, and call the
dcf(implement in ATF) in this function.
