Ah good point on confusing commit message. I just assumed it is limitation
of the implementation. I can update the log when applying. It is not spec
or protocol limitation for sure.

How about this ?

  | firmware: arm_scmi: Increase performance MAX_OPPS limit to 64
  |
  | Some platforms expose more than 32 operating performance points (OPPs)
  | per performance domain via the SCMI performance protocol, but the
  | driver currently limits the number of OPPs it can handle to 32 via
  | MAX_OPPS.
  |
  | Bump MAX_OPPS to 64 so that these platforms can register all their
  | performance levels. This is an internal limit in the driver only and
  | does not affect the SCMI protocol ABI.
  |
  | 64 is chosen as the next power of two above the existing limit.
