Although I am not going to NACK for the single-time performance of a
single device driver for a device that I do not have or fully understand,
please note that you may be wasting several billion cycles unless
your product is running at MHZ/kHZ level.

What is going on with this loop? Do you really have such a virtually-continuous
frequency scaling in your product? (Wow.... but in such a case, I don't think
OPP is appropriate.)


Cheers,
