That post you link to had a response from Andy that echoed the
same sentiment and then no reply.

Are they a set of frequencies the device can operate at? Yes. Do
they have associated voltages that aren't expressed in this
patch? Yes.

Perhaps I've missed something though and the index of the array
of rates corresponds to some bus speed mode? That isn't clearly
expressed in the binding. Do the frequencies come from some spec
for those bus speed modes? Either way, I'd like to understand why
we need to put frequency tables into DT (hint: the commit text
should explain that).
