I have no real expertise with cpufreq boost, but after reading a bit
through cpufreq code this seems wrong. Boost is enabled statically,
however the driver has neither a ->set_boost function nor does it call
cpufreq_enable_boost_support() which would use a default
implementation for ->set_boost. As a result boost support is
effectively disabled:

static bool cpufreq_boost_supported(void)
{
return likely(cpufreq_driver) && cpufreq_driver->set_boost;
}

The driver should probably do the same as cpufreq-dt.c and call
cpufreq_enable_boost_support() if boost frequencies are available,
instead of 'enabling' boost statically.

Thanks
