How do you know for sure that these increased ranges are safe (high end) 
and stable (low end) for this particular board? IIRC the safe/legal 
range depends on the chip SKU, and to be honest I have no idea which SKU 
is present on Harmony... For public boards like Colibri I imagine 
there's enough information out there to tell what will work, but maybe 
not our internal boards like Harmony, unless you checked our ancient 
downstream kernels?
