I do not think this is the right approach precisely for the above
reason.

See my comment in V1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20231214125130.zqtq6ioj4c533wha@elbow/

"
I am also concerned if the table should be separated out as a dtsi and
included at board.dts level to prevent downstream users going crazy..
"

I suspect there is no magic opp configuration that will work with all
downstream and board variations. instead of creating a trimmed down
non-datasheet tuples of OPP configuration, use the data sheet provided
OPP configurations into each dtsi and the boards can apply the dtsi
based on the type of sample they have.

I don't see any other scheme (overlays, maybe?).. but this approach is
broken and your note above proves why this approach is broken.
