Ok I can push down the clock handling into the imx5 clk driver.
Great !!
This leaves two more differences between imx5-cpufreq and cpufreq-cpu0:

1. Disabling of OPPs that could not be supported by the connected
regulator. I think this part can easily be made generic and pushed into
cpu0, as it should be beneficial to other SoCs too.
Sure.
2. Usage of a fixed max voltage, rather than a voltage-tolerance. i.MX5
has a fixed maximum voltage, which is valid across all operating points.
I'm really opposed to using a tolerance value, where we instead could
have a well defined range. So for merging imx5-cpufreq into cpufreq-cpu0
this driver really need to handle this case.
Does adding a separate property for this, while keeping the
voltage-tolerance for the existing users, sound like a change you would
accept?
It looks you can just send voltage-tolerance to "zero" and this should work
for you.. No need of another field.

Thanks a lot for making our (/me & Rafael) life easier :)
