This seems a bit weird - I would expect the silicon to be more accurate
than user provided platform data. I'd expect the driver to always check
the information provided by the device and at least log if there's a
difference.

It'd also be easier to review the patch if there was some description of
the differences (or there were a series of patches adding
parameterisation for relevant things followed by one adding the new
device).
