Currently all H616 boards running mainline firmware and kernels run at a
fixed 1GHz CPU clock frequency. If you happen to have a good SoC (bin 1 or
3), this patchset will allow you to run at 1.5 GHz, which is 50% faster.
So anything that scales with CPU frequency should run much quicker.

Cheers,
Andre
