This feel like a very aggressive limitation, to only allow the
opp-suspend rate, that is not even used under normal load.

I let my Rock Pi S board with a RK3308B variant run "stress -c 8" for
around 10 hours and the reported temp only reach around 50-55 deg c,
ambient temp around 20 deg c and board laying flat on a table without
any enclosure or heat sink.

This was running with performance as scaling_governor and cpu running
the 1008000 opp.

Most RK3308 variants datasheets list 1.3 GHz as max rate for CPU,
the K-variant lists 1.2 GHz, and the -S-variants seem to have both
reduced voltage and max rate.

The OPPs for this SoC already limits max rate to 1 GHz and is more than
likely good enough to not reach the max temperature of 115-125 deg c as
rated in datasheets and vendor DTs.

Adding the tsadc and trips (same/similar as px30) will probably allow us
to add/use the "missing" 1.2 and 1.3 GHz OPPs.

Jonas
