You should be using your SoC compatible strings here. OPP compatible
property isn't supposed to be (mis)used for this purpose.
Referring to my comments in patch 1, what if we end up changing the bindings
based on DT maintainer comments? We will have these compatible strings, and
at that point is it acceptable to match against them? Or is it still better
to match to SoC compatibles? I think it makes sense to just probe against
these.
But even then I think these are not correct. You should have added a
single compatible string: operating-points-v2-ti-cpu.

As the properties will stay the same across machines. And then you
need to use SoC strings here.
Are you opposed to moving _of_get_opp_desc_node from
drivers/base/power/opp/opp.h to include/linux/pm_opp.h and renaming it
appropriately?
I am not opposed to that, but ...
If I move the ti properties out of the cpu node, as discussed in patch 1 of
this series, and into the operating-points-v2 table, I need a way to get the
operating-points-v2 device node and I think it makes sense to reuse this as
it is what the opp framework uses internally to parse the phandle to the opp
table.
I am not sure if those registers belong to the OPP bindings. What are those
registers really? What all can be read from them? Why shouldn't they be present
as a separate node in DT on the respective bus? Look at how it is done for
sti-cpufreq driver.
