So if they depend on a certain type of SoC, which they should, then we
can get these initialized from that SoC's dts/dtsi file instead of a common
file.. And so that would resolve the issue you just reported.

Now I haven't proposed in the patch that we will change these voltage
levels at all.. This is regulator specific code and would come into play
only when regulators are registered for cpu.. Otherwise we will just
play with frequency..

Passing OPP instead of just list of frequencies is the generic way this
is done now a days..
