PM / devfreq: Add sysfs node to expose available frequencies

Browse source 
devfreq governors such as ondemand are controlled by a min and
max frequency, while governors like userspace governor allow us
to set a specific frequency.
However, for the same specific device, depending on the SoC, the
available frequencies can vary.

So expose the available frequencies as a snapshot over sysfs to
allow informed decisions.

This was inspired by cpufreq framework's equivalent for similar
usage sysfs node: scaling_available_frequencies.

Description:
The /sys/class/devfreq/.../available_frequencies shows
the available frequencies of the corresponding devfreq object.
This is a snapshot of available frequencies and not limited
by the min/max frequency restrictions.
