I see..
Please confirm if my understanding is correct.
- mem-bus-group: all blocks sharing a regulator
- mem-bus-block: individual blocks managing their clock rate
What you do in kernel is register group as a device (with virtual OPPs)
and then manage blocks within the driver. And so you need to do this
dummy mapping of virtual to physical frequencies.
It *may* not have done it this way, if I was to design this driver.
Each bus-block is a separately controllable device and so must be registered
separately. In that case all bus-blocks will have separate OPP tables and
all this dummy-v2p mapping will go away.
I believe that you are over complicating stuff without any need..
