The code is as below, maybe the property is missing from the beginning of this code,
this property should mean the current frequency of CPU running at I think:

arch/arm/kernel/topology.c

122 rate = of_get_property(cn, "clock-frequency", &len);
123 if (!rate || len != 4) {
124 pr_err("%pOF missing clock-frequency property\n", cn);
125 continue;
126 }

Thanks,
