I assume there is some real platform with a real problem you are trying 
to solve? Details please.

Can you just hardcode some min? Maybe 10% of the max or something. Is 
there a downside to a larger than necessary min?

Wouldn't be better to fix this without requiring a DT change and that 
could work on stable kernels if needed.
