Thanks for the context! I think the suggestion comes originally from here:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200405115138.vrrvv7spnv6ifm6x@xxxxxxxxxxxx/

On the other hand, adding this property will cause the CPU to spin for up to
112us in _regulator_do_set_voltage() during each CPU frequency change. So this
adds a lot of latency, which I would like to avoid if possible.
