Just curious, since I picked up the PMIC support... can we do dvfs? if
not, please indicate that in the commit message.

This is critical info in the commit message and in documentation of
source.

I am also concerned if the table should be separated out as a dtsi and
included at board.dts level to prevent downstream users going crazy..

Are you absolutely sure this has no detection logic that can be
implemented? Almost all TI K3 SoCs seem to have a standard scheme to
detect the speed grades till date. /me wonders what the heck happened
here..

Don't you need opp-shared ?

Could you add clock-latency-ns ?
