     Now we will set the ddr clock rate in bl31 use dcf controller(as i 
show in the patch cover letter),
      and there only two result we can get, set clock rate fail(ddr 
clock still in old rate) or set clock rate
     sucessful(use the new ddr rate), if the set rate fail, we should 
keep the voltage old value. Ah, you
     remind me, i should check clock rate before:
         if (old_clk_rate > target_rate)
     otherwise there have chance set high rate fail and use low voltage.

     And about the dmcfreq->volt, i will update this value when into the 
function, throuth

     opp = devfreq_recommended_opp(dev, &dmcfreq->rate, flags);
     if (IS_ERR(opp)) {
         rcu_read_unlock();
         return PTR_ERR(opp);
     }
     dmcfreq->volt = dev_pm_opp_get_voltage(opp);

     there is some situation we need to disable ddr frequency 
scaling(connect two panel etc)
     on rk3399 platform, and it should be also needed on other rockchip 
platform, so i move these
     funticon as separate file.
