I have seen http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-omap@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/msg51988.html
and I disagree with this.

We are setting up a standard for all future silicon that omap_features
if it contains a higher frequency will always support all lower
frequencies in omap_feature. This may be convinent for the moment,
BUT, I disagree with the approach as we cannot guarantee that this
will be the approach for all silica in the future and approach taken
here could be considered short-sighted. if 1.2GHz will be supported
then a check for omap_has_1_2GHz should be true as well - which this
patch will fail to support. E.g. on 4460 has_1GHz should'nt return
true as it is 920MHz, but the check for 1_2GHz should be true - which
it wont as return omap_features & OMAP3_HAS_ ##flag;     will not have
BIT(9) set.
