Sure, will fix it in v2.

I have tested this on two Orange Pi Plus boards, and they run stable
across a range of voltages (and frequencies).

How was this tested?

Basically using intermittent cpuburn runs and monitor freq/voltage/temp. I've included a description of my test in the v2 commit log.

There's not much point to that comment, since it's been that way for
all the other SoCs from Allwinner. However, that would be great to
have it in the commit log.

Totally agree, but I thought: there must be a good reason this text is in the PC dts, so let's put it in the Plus dts as well. I've moved it from the patch to the log in the v2 patch, which I will send right away.

Thanks for reviewing!
