The opp core already has a way of finding current OPP, that's what
Dmitry is trying to use here. It finds it using clk_get_rate(), if
that is zero, it picks the lowest freq possible.

Dmitry can answer that better, but a device doesn't necessarily need
to consume energy in probe. It can consume bus clock, like APB we
have, but the more energy consuming stuff can be left disabled until
the time a user comes up. Probe will just end up registering the
driver and initializing it.
