I thought there are a lot of users already in there..

$ git grep -i opp.*bps arch/arm64/boot/dts/ | wc -l
864

Right. So is there inconsistency right now ? Yes, there is.

The important question we need to answer is where do we want to see
all these drivers (specially new ones) in the future. What's the right
thing to do eventually ? Hardcode stuff ? Or Move it to DT ?

The answer is DT for me, so the code can be generic enough to be
reused. This is just one step in the right direction I guess.
Eventually the drivers must get simplified, which they are I guess.
