Since commit e0b3165ba5 ("cpufreq: add 'freq_table' in struct
cpufreq_policy"), freq_table has been stored in struct cpufreq_policy
instead of being maintained separately.
However, several helpers in freq_table.c still take both policy and
freq_table as parameters, even though policy->freq_table can always be
used. This leads to redundant function arguments and increases the
chance of inconsistencies.
This patch removes the unnecessary freq_table argument from these
functions and updates their callers to only pass policy. This makes
the code simpler, more consistent, and avoids duplication.

for_each_possible_cpu() is currently used to initialize cpufreq.
However, in cpu_dev_register_generic(), for_each_present_cpu()
is used to register CPU devices which means the CPU devices are
only registered for present CPUs and not all possible CPUs.
With nosmp or maxcpus=0, only the boot CPU is present, lead
to the cpufreq probe failure or defer probe due to no cpu device
available for not present CPUs.
Change for_each_possible_cpu() to for_each_present_cpu() in the
above cpufreq drivers to ensure it only registers cpufreq for
CPUs that are actually present.

The cpufreq core now handles this for basic attributes, including boost
frequencies, the driver can skip setting them.

Introduce a virtualized cpufreq driver for guest kernels to improve
performance and power of workloads within VMs.
This driver does two main things:
1. Sends the frequency of vCPUs as a hint to the host. The host uses the
hint to schedule the vCPU threads and decide physical CPU frequency.
2. If a VM does not support a virtualized FIE(like AMUs), it queries the
host CPU frequency by reading a MMIO region of a virtual cpufreq device
to update the guest's frequency scaling factor periodically. This enables
accurate Per-Entity Load Tracking for tasks running in the guest.
