Hi Krzysztof,
Thanks for taking the time to review this patch. I'm about to update it
to address your comments and I need some clarifications from you.

Not exactly true as the 'compatible' string is for the driver, but I understand
your point.

The idea was to allow for future compatible strings to be added later, but
I guess we can re-introduce the oneOf entry later. Will remove it.

This is the main topic I want to clarify. See further down for the main comment,
but I would like to understand what you are asking here. To copy the schema
from bindings/opp/opp-v2.yaml and bindings/opp/opp-v2-base.yaml?

Will remove the duplicated names.

I'm not sure the power domains and how to handle them have been
entirely settled for Rockchip, hence why they were not included. Will
check with Collabora to see if they have anything to add here, but
for non-Rockchip platforms (like Juno with FPGAs) the constraints
are going to be different.

Will do.

I cannot find any device tree that supports your suggested usage. Most (all?) of
the device trees that I can find have the opp table as a separate node from
the gpu and make use of the 'operating-points-v2 = <&opp_node_name>' reference
in the board fragment. To me that makes more sense as different boards can have
different operating points and is no reason to make them sub-nodes of the gpu.

Thanks again for your review!
