Also, there are a lot more operating points for the A33, see:
https://github.com/QSchulz/linux/blob/v4.9-rc4_adc_a31_v7/cpufreq_a33/arch/arm/boot/dts/sun8i-a33.dtsi#L323-L340

They are present in the Allwinner Linux source code and in the fex of
all A33-based boards.

Is there a reason for not adding all opp?
