Add missing 2000MHz & 1900MHz OPPs (for A15 cores) and 1400MHz OPP
(for A7 cores).  Also update common Odroid-XU3 Lite/XU3/XU4 thermal
cooling maps to account for new OPPs.

Since new OPPs are not available on all Exynos5422/5800 boards modify
dts files for Odroid-XU3 Lite (limited to 1.8 GHz / 1.3 GHz) & Peach
Pi (limited to 2.0 GHz / 1.3 GHz) accordingly.

Tested on Odroid-XU3 and XU3 Lite.

I think that a comment in the DTS why these operating points aren't available
in this board will make more clear why the nodes are being deleted.
Ok, I will add these comments in the next patch revision.

AFAIK Thomas restricted the maximum OPP, because for A15 freqs > 1.8GHz the
INT rail would need to be scaled up as well since there's a maximum voltage
difference between the ARM and INT rails before the system becomes unstable:

http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2014-July/276766.html
https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/5/2/419

The ChromiumOS vendor tree uses a virtual regulator driver that makes sure
the maximum voltage skew is between a limit. But that never made to mainline:

https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/third_party/kernel/+/chromeos-3.8/arch/arm/boot/dts/exynos5420-peach-pit.dtsi#90
https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/4/29/28

Did that change and there's infrastructure in mainline now to cope with that?
If that's the case, I think it would be good to mention in the commit message.
I was not aware of this limitation and AFAIK mainline has currently
no code to handle it.  I also cannot find any code to handle this in
Yes, that's what I thought as well but maybe I was missing something.
Hardkernel's vendor kernel for Odroid-XU3 board.

Do you know whether this problem exists also on Exynos5422/5800
SoCs or only on Exynos5420 one?  I see that ChromiumOS uses virtual
regulator code also on Exynos5800 SoC based Peach Pi board but was
the problem actually present on this board?
My understanding is that this problem is present in 5420/5422/5800
but I have no way to confirm this. I'm just guessing from the info
in the ChromiumOS vendor tree.

If you look at the commit that added the regulator-locker driver,
the test says to be done in a Peach Pi so it seems the problem is
not restricted to only Exynos5420:

[ I added Arjun to Cc:, maybe he can help in explaining this issue
  (unfortunately Inderpal's email is no longer working). ]
Added Abhilash to cc list as well since he was involved in the Exynos ChromeOS tree.
Please also note that on Exynos5422/5800 SoCs the same ARM rail
voltage is used for 1.9 GHz & 2.0 GHz OPPs as for the 1.8 GHz one.
IOW if the problem exists it is already present in the mainline
kernel.
Ah, I only looked at your patch and I didn't compare the voltage levels
in your 1.9 GHz and 2.0 GHz OPPs with the current 1.8 GHz in mainline.

I wonder if the voltage levels in your patch are correct then, since the
ChromiumOS tree uses a higher voltages for the 1.9 GHz and 2.0 GHz OPPs:

/*
 * Default ASV table
 */
static const unsigned int asv_voltage_5420[CPUFREQ_NUM_LEVELS] = {
	1362500,	/* L0  2100 */
	1312500,	/* L1  2000 */
	1275000,	/* L2  1900 */
	1225000,	/* L3  1800 */
	1200000,	/* L4  1700 */
