Lets see what's Nishanth/Rafael's view on this. I am more or less in
favor of it. But isn't a big thing. Can convert it to dbg if it annoys you :)

I never said that it has anything cpu specific.. What I said was that this
routine wouldn't have existed if Rafael wouldn't have asked for it. It is
just a wrapper over of_init_opp_table, which also has a dummy
implementation when its not supported.

So, it might not be worth enough for any other code to use it. :)
But in case it is, we can add it later.
