On some SoCs (especially from Qualcomm and MediaTek) an OPP

Add opp-level as an additional property in the OPP node and describe it
in the OPP bindings document.

This binding is generic enough and doesn't have anything to do with a
remote mp and so such statements should be avoided in here. And then
Linux can use it the way it wants.
Maybe just say that it describes the performance level of the device.
That's all.
Sure, does this seem fine?
- opp-level: A value representing the performance level of the device,
expressed as a 32-bit big-endian integer.
I assume the changelog mentioning the motivation behind adding this is fine?
- clock-latency-ns: Specifies the maximum possible transition latency (in
nanoseconds) for switching to this OPP from any other OPP.
