The patches using this are still WIP but the basic point is that H616
has 2 die revisions (And those have
couple of other versions themselves) that require different uV and some
frequencies are blacklisted on those
versions.
The driver is using these functions to read the revision (Not the
version. It just looked like the logical
thing to export both and Andre confirmed. We can ofc drop the version
symbol export if need be) and reads
trough the OPP table and selects the supported frequencies and uV for
the chip its running on :)
I will try to get the cpufreq patches in order in the upcoming days and
I will Cc you in those as well +
post a link to them in this thread :)
Cheers,
Martin

For simplicity, just make this patch part of the series that adds cpufreq
support on this platform/soc. Cross referencing won't give any more confidence
that the user is also getting merged at the same time as this patch.
