I'm wondering if that's the right approach.

I guess we could also have three different OPP tables, and pass them
all three through a phandle array, and have the kernel code select
which one is relevant based on the SID content

Another option would be to use the OF_DYNAMIC code to fill
operating-points-v2 at kernel boot, before (or when) cpufreq kicks in.

ATF could also do that work.
