How will that help?

The problem was that the compatibility string of "opp-v2" specifies
the way we need to parse the bindings and shouldn't be (ab)used to
probe a driver like cpufreq-dt. And so we got stuck.

I didn't get this one, what can we do by looking at CPUs nodes ?

That can be a valid solution I would say, but that separate driver
(cpufreq-dt-device.c) needs to be changed for every new platform.
