With legacy I mean device where cpr (core power reduction) wasn't a
thing and qcom used a different way to select the microvolt for the opp.

There is nothing in the related DTS to fix since they are not broken.
The driver doesn't enforce cpr presence and supports both new and old
implementation...

Setting the cpr as a required binding was wrong from the start. It was
probably done when qcs404 was introduced and they had this bright idea
of creating the schema and ignoring the other kind of configuration the
driver supports.

Since now we want to send opp for ipq8064 that use the old
implementation this fixup is required.

Probably I should drop the legacy term and just say that the driver
supports 2 different configuration and the following schema permits only
one?

Thanks for the review! Will fix in v2.
