Did you checked the exact rate from clk_summary? Checking the frequency
table for subcore0|1 from mmcc-msm8996.c clock driver shows that the
tables are slightly different for higher rates.
Otherwise, I'd take the patch but it would be better to align the
frequency tables to avoid confusions.
On the other side we can split freq table to encode and decode tables,
but I'm still not sure is it possible to have:
subcore0_freq != subcore1_freq.
