Sorry if I added any confusion. My original patch series addressed both the
issues:

1. duplicate entries added by OPP library(same as addressed by your patch) and
2. another to avoid duplication in the devicetree for OPPs

IIUC Exynos don't use ST for OPPs(yet), so you need to address only (1).
But we still need (2) before any bL platforms use DT for OPPs and need CPUFreq 
support. And yes we can address this separately.
