Hi Christoph,

Thanks for your patch.

I find this part:

"792MHz isn't mentioned there isn't note that 792MHz OPP isn't allowed."

a bit confusing.

Maybe:

"However in [2] (page 24, table 10. "Operating Ranges"), it is not 
mentioned that 792MHz OPP isn't allowed."

I think it is worth adding a Fixes tag so that this fix could be 
backported
to stable kernels.
