After getting ranted a bit, here is an real attempt to solve the
problem in a generic way. I hope this can take care of the complexity
of both Qualcomm and ST Microelectronics SoCs.

@Lee and Stephen: Lemme know if this still wouldn't work :(

Subject: [PATCH] PM / OPP: Add "opp-cuts" and "opp-supply-version" bindings

For many platforms it is unknown until runtime, about which OPPs should
be used or if used what should be voltage range for the supplies for a
particular frequency. And this mostly depends on the version of the
device or hardware, for which the OPPs are getting used.

This patch adds two new OPP bindings to get this solved.

1. "opp-cuts": The purpose of this binding is to allow the platform to
   identify the valid OPPs based on the different levels of versions
   with which the hardware is identified.

2. "opp-supply-name": The purpose of this binding is to allow the
   platform to select the voltage range of the power supplies, for a
   valid OPP.

Both of these can be used together, as well as independently.
