[U-Boot] [PATCH] TI: DaVinci DA850 EVM: support passing device speed grade information to kernel

The TI DA850/OMAP-L138/AM18x EVM can be populated with devices
of different speed grades.

The maximum speed the chip can support can only be determined from
the label on the package (not software readable).

Introduce a method to pass the speed grade information to kernel
using ATAG_REVISION. The kernel uses this information to determine
the maximum speed reachable using cpufreq.

Note that U-Boot itself does not set the CPU rate. The CPU
speed is setup by a primary bootloader ("UBL"). The rate setup
by UBL could be different from the maximum speed grade of the
device.
