The choice of skipping > 1.8 GHz could be also made because of missing
ASV which is important to detect the BIN2 of Exynos5422. The BIN2 is
capped to 1.8/1.3.

Anyway this shouldn't be limiting us now because we have all data
statically coded in DTS - in mainline boards, only Odroid XU3-lite
uses BIN2.

Beside comments from Javier, I would be happy to see high frequencies
Tested-by on Peach Pi/Pit. AFAIR, we did not have these in SRPOL. :)
