Subject[PATCH v7 5/6] arm64: add hw_nmi_get_sample_period for preparation of lockup detector
Date
Set safe maximum CPU frequency to 5 GHz in case a particular platform
doesn't implement cpufreq driver.
Although, architecture doesn't put any restrictions on
maximum frequency but 5 GHz seems to be safe maximum given the available
Arm CPUs in the market which are clocked much less than 5 GHz.

On the other hand, we can't make it much higher as it would lead to
a large hard-lockup detection timeout on parts which are running
slower (eg. 1GHz on Developerbox) and doesn't possess a cpufreq driver.
