sorry, but no .

The OPPs in the mainline kernel match the specifications released by the
soc vendor. Going outside these specs _may_ affect things like stability
on some boards or in general simply the lifetime of the chip itself.

So yes, while boards may generally work with these higher frequencies
I don't think this should be the default coming from the mainline kernel.

If board-owners feel the need to exceed the specs they can still modify
the dts, but we shouldn't force this decision on everyone.
