I see this one: I remember there was also a discussion about proper
handling of that but I do not remember the final result:

Author: H. Nikolaus Schaller <hns@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Date:   Mon Dec 2 22:10:55 2019 +0100

    Revert "ARM: OMAP2+: Fix warnings with broken omap2_set_init_voltage()"
    
    This reverts commit cf395f7ddb9ebc6b2d28d83b53d18aa4e7c19701.
    
    This patch is in conflict with 1GHz OPP.




commit ae44b701fb6afb2be62defff590531e3b0632772
Author: H. Nikolaus Schaller <hns@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Date:   Sat Apr 10 16:59:53 2021 +0200

    ARM: DTS: gta04a5: disable 1GHz OPP again because it is not reliable
    
    To enable on a running system:
    
    echo 1 >/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/boost
    
    The symptom can be spurious hangs and virtual paging error,
    kernel panics and strange things.

on top of 5.13-rcX in Nikolaus trees.

Regards,
Andreas
