Support for CPU frequency scaling on the RPi 0/1 got added [1] to the 
5.14.12-2~exp1 (and later) kernel and is not available on a Bullseye system.
You can get it by installing a kernel via backports or upgrading to Bookworm/
Testing.

AFAIK, the RPi 1 only has 1 frequency: 700Mhz ...

and only 1 CPU core, so I don't expect any change in that.

The RPi 0 (Zero) uses the same kernel and does have multiple frequencies.
