Add an operating-points table and cooling entry to the GPU on the
RK3328 SoC to improve its performance. According to its datasheet[1]
the maximum frequency of the Mali-450 MP2 GPU found on the RK3328 SoC
is 500MHz.

On my rock64 device, under x11, glmark2-es2 performance increased from
around 60 to just over 100. Same device running glmark2-es2 under
wayland/weston improved from just over 100 to just over 200.

After the conversion to YAML of the Operating Performance Points(OPP)
binding the operating-points-v2 property expects the nodename to have
the '^opp-table(-[a-z0-9]+)?$' format.

Thanks, I wasn't aware.

opp-microvolt has the same value for every node vs. table below?

On page 1 of the schematic for the rock64
https://files.pine64.org/doc/rock64/ROCK64_Schematic_v3.0_20181105.pdf is a
table ("Power Timing") showing BUCK1 at 1.1V. I interpreted this to mean that
VDD_LOG should always be at 1.1V, regardless of frequency.

See also previous discussion:

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-rockchip/3c95c29b-6c07-5945-ac22-d683997e1ca0@arm.com/ (local)

Is that now fixed/checked?

I wasn't aware of the previous/on-going discussion regarding a gpu opp table
for this SoC. Perhaps that explains my suspicions? I couldn't help wonder why
the frequency is always reported as 163840000 even when I have an opp table
that only has the 500MHz entry?

I'll investigate whether I can prove or disprove the scaling is actually
occurring?
