Based on what I've seen of your V4 patch, I think it's fine to let the
da850-evm run at 375.  I am not sure why it would need to be default
to 300.
I agree that the cpu-supply is correctly referencing vdcdc3_reg, and
it's currently setup to handle .95 to 1.35V, which I think is OK based
on what I've seen and the OPP's look right from what I can tell.
