You could use something like the API I added in "ARM: tegra: add EMC
clock scaling API". This needs some rework and I looked into integrating
this with the DEVFREQ framework, but I don't think it fits too well.

Bandwidth requirements should always be communicated to the EMC driver
and not described by clock rates.

Lucas
