yes, there is:
a) ABB dt series - i will repost this in a few mins
b) AVS conversion from non-dt mode to dt supported mode. (which by
itself depends on VC/VP conversion).
c) clk notifier based dvfs for cpufreq-cpu0 -> this allows us to
introduce the necessary plumbing for mpu voltage domain such that the
TWL4030 regulator, AVS and ABB are rightly sequenced.

What you have done in the patch below is to introduce ABB regulator -
but no one is actually using it -> this might actually work on certain
samples at 1GHz, but prolonged operation will either damage the device
or fail on other samples - I have tried numerous times Internally to
get approval for non ABB/AVS configuration for 1GHz - but I have a
clear feedback that it cannot be done with the constraints of
DM3730/OMAP3630.

Lets do this a series at a time and build up the necessary support -
we get clock nodes for dvfs (using i2c1) here with cpufreq-cpu0 with
this series. If folks can ack and queue this up, we can get in ABB dts
nodes in place - allowing us to work on the next set -> sequencing
using clock notifier. in parallel we could work on converting AVS back
to dt based solution.

yes, the road is long.
