tagging by turbo-mode means the OPP is *disabled* by default and
needs to be enabled actively.

It is just a revert for the gta04a5 because I think it is the only board
which is affected (maybe it would need SmartReflex in operation to
fine tune the OPPs compared to the generic table). Therefore I have
a patch which adds turbo-mode to the gta04a5.dts

That would be interesting to know.
