I will post all those patches soon, thank you.

Moving the OPP management to the clk driver is the easy solution which works good in practice for Tegra, it also removes a need to switch each driver to dev_pm_opp_set_rate() usage.

Pushing the OPP into a CCF driver is indeed not ideal. I'm open to new
ideas. I will post those patches where we could discuss this in a more
details.

Thank you very much for helping with reviewing this all. I'll drop the
lockdep_set_class() and post the v7 shortly. Afterwards, I'll send the
rest of clk, device-tree and etc related patches targeting 5.15.
