though the other option would be to just get rid assigned-clocks
in dt-node for utgard malis ;-)

Like any good gpu, lima should just use frequency scaling to achieve
suitable (fast <-> powersaving) frequencies and it looks like a set
of patches for this was posted in december already [0].

So I guess one could expect opp-based scaling to land at some point.
