The two assertions should probably just be replaced with 
DC_LOG_DEBUG(...) instead - this will drop the callstack on boot for 
production systems.

Dropping the whole validation also means that we're going to be taking 
the table as-is and overriding the defaults - which isn't something we'd 
actually want to do.

I do think it's fine to just reduce this to a debug message since you'd 
see this on any 2400G/AM4 (as far as I'm aware), and only for the fCLK 
table (the tables always come from PPLIB/SMU).
