Your understanding on the fact that there is no relation between
PM QOS and Devfreq framework of today's code is correct.

The reason on why so is not.
In general, you don't make a peripheral device be directly throttled
by CPUFreq values. There exist such cases, but they are not
"general" or inherit characteristics of peripheral devices.
