Subject: Re: [PATCH] firmware: smccc: Export both soc_id functions

The patches using this are still WIP but the basic point is that H616 
has 2 die revisions (And those have
couple of other versions themselves) that require different uV and some 
frequencies are blacklisted on those
versions.

The driver is using these functions to read the revision (Not the 
version. It just looked like the logical
thing to export both and Andre confirmed. We can ofc drop the version 
symbol export if need be) and reads
trough the OPP table and selects the supported frequencies and uV for 
the chip its running on :)

I will try to get the cpufreq patches in order in the upcoming days and 
I will Cc you in those as well +
post a link to them in this thread :)

Cheers,
Martin
