I meant property names not compatibles. Looks like PPC and SPARC seem to
use non-standard property names like "cpuid",
"ibm,ppc-interrupt-server#s" instead of single "reg" property for all
cpus/threads

Since the cpufreq driver doesn't depend on those properties, I moved
arch_of_get_cpu_node to OF/DT core in v2.
