I think that would be an unsafe assumption. If it's forgotten, then
we may try to run an invalid/dangerous voltage/frequency combination.
I'd really like 'all' to be defined an deliberate.

We already use sysconf for all of this type of stuff, as this
information is contained in ST's Sysconf banks. Moving over to a new
API would be a huge move and would require lots of planning
discussions with ST.
