You are right about the commit message. The problem is we can't enable
all bits in supp_hw anymore due to changes like this:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-arm-msm/patch/20220829011035.1.Ie3564662150e038571b7e2779cac7229191cf3bf@changeid/
This creates 2 opps with same freq when supp_hw = UINT_MAX.
-Akhil.
