In the current approach the OPP data is split across DT and kernel code. If you take the
other approach all OPP entries can reside in DT and for someone just looking at that file
there's no confusion about what the kernel could potentially support. Whether a particular
an OPP should be supported is best decided at runtime.
Also, IMHO letting platforms invoke opp_add() is open to abuse and platforms should be
restricted to invoking opp_enable/disable to indicate what's possible on a particular Si rev.
