I found a simpler way to reproduce these messages.  If I simply use
the userspace governor and cycle through all the A7 OPPs, I'll hit
this message (script below[1]).  Note that I'm also using my DTS
change that fixes the vdd_arm and vdd_kfc voltages to a voltage that
is high enough for all the OPPs.

  cat ${cpu_reg}/microvolts
  sleep 1
done
