omap2_set_init_voltage should setup the curr_volt based on which OPP
the system is functioning at. Blindly setting a 1.2v setting in the
initial structure may not even match the default voltages stored in
the voltage table which are supported for the domain.

For example, OMAP3430 core domain does not use 1.2v and ends up
generating a warning on the first transition.

Where do you update this parameter upon initialization? Shouldn't you read
the VP register and find the actual current voltage and update this param?

The sequence is as follows:
a) omapx_vdd_data configure is called as part of sr init sequence.
	And the curr_volt with this patch is not updated at this stage.
b) somewhere down in the boot sequence, pm.c's omap2_set_init_voltage starts up. This looks up the current clk frequency from clock layer of the parent device for the domain, picks up the nominal voltages stored in the opp layer, then does a omap_voltage_scale_vdd to that voltage. In omap_voltage_scale_vdd, The current voltage is merely picked off the vp (in _pre_volt_scale). the last step it does is to setup vdd->curr_volt. This can then be used by dvfs layer etc to make appropriate decisions.

So, No, I dont think I need to update it here, it should happen as part of the pm init sequence.

Could you explain what problem do you foresee by doing this?
